For high triglycerides and cholesterol

Hi doctors I m 44 year married female. From past one year I have high triglycerides and cholesterol up and down. I was taking rosuvastatin tablet once and then my cholesterol use to come down but not much difference in triglycerides. My physical activity is not that great. I did my last lipid report yesterday it was showing triglycerides - 288 and 3 months before it was 292. I don't want to be dependent on medicines at this age. My ldl was 101 and hdl was 34 as per yesterday report and total cholesterol showing as 169 below range in report. Please tell me how to reduce triglycerides naturally or medicine is the only way to reduce it. I keep repeating my lipid every 3-4 months to check my levels. From past one month I has stopped my rosuvastin tablet and was taking cholestrol care green tea thinking it will reduce my triglycerides but not showing much difference in numbers. Please help m worried. My ECG and 2 d echo reports are normal. Please guide dictors

I am experiencing sudden, sharp pain on both sides of my back ribs. The pain is severe, around 8/10, and I do not have any other symptoms, and there is no pain while breathing.
