High cholesterol is nothing to do with leg pains. And i need to see whole lipid profile report rather than just cholesterol value for further advice. Consult online directly for further evaluation and management. Till then exercise regularly, reduce weight

Hi. Your total cholesterol is high but complete lipid profile with LDL levels are needed to plan the medication. Do fasting lipid profile and consult with doctor.
