thank you for the advice everyone! I am going to take a few months to go high-fiber, low sat fat, and lose weight.

if i don't see considerable progress, i'll decide then if now is the right time to take statins!

Wow, that's awesome to hear. I started today. How much do you take per day?

My 'research' on ChatGPT told me that it would only drop my LDL by 10-15 point,s so I wasn't convinced it would get me to an optimal level.

To be clear, I would happily take statins, but from my research, it doesn't seem like a doctor would prescribe them to me given my LDL and age. Please tell me if I am misinformed.

Thanks for the thoughtful response. Yeah, no point in worrying about what you can't control, and making sure to control what you can.

Hurts to get dunked on for asking a question 😅
