Do you have other risk factors..? 1. diabetes 2. hypertension 3. smoking 4. family history of cardiac disease if you have any of these then tou should take medicine . another step is get one more investigation HSCRP, if its value is > 2, then take medicine otherwise you dont need any medicine . but you need lifestyle modification, healthy diet and exercise
