2021-11-05 09:50:37
Hi dr, recently I checked my lipid profile and this is finding.. total cholesterol 213, HDL 38, LDL 138.4, vldl 36.6 and tryglyceride 183, it is high shall I worry for my heart health ?? Or only regular excersise and walk and food change will help ?? Also one physician gave me roliptin 5mg to have it for 3 month to reduce cholesterol. But I am afraid to take this medicine as once I stopped it may increase cholesterol again and I have to take it regularly to control my cholesterol. Please guide me doctors.
