Brief Answer: It is better to start medicines... Detailed Answer: Dear XXXXXXX XXXXXXX Apologies for the late reply... You need exercise and diet changes even if you are on medicines. They are most important means to control your triglyceride and cholesterol values. You need to make diet changes and start physical exercise right away. Since your lipid profile reveal significantly very high triglyceride values, I feel it would be good to start triglyceride lowering drugs along with exercise. So visit your doctor and start medications. Hope this helps. Regards
