Blockage in arteries

Question

Asked for Male, 32 Years

I had high bad cholesterol (LDL 293). After some medicines (roseday 10), diet and excercise my bad cholesterol has been reduced to normal level. I assume that generally blockages in arteries present due to high bad cholesterol, so now my bad cholesterol has been reduced, so there will be no blockages in arteries right ?
