I Am A Healthy 75 Yr Old Female, Walk 30

I am a healthy 75 yr old female, walk 30 min/day 4 days week. B/P runs around 120/70.
Last month I chose to go off my cholesterol medicine, but I do take 50mg synthoid for hypotension & thyroid nodules.
Do I really have to go back on cholesterol medicine? I weigh 138#. I'd rather not.

My total cholesterol after being off medicine for it is 303. LDL is 200. HDL is 73. Triglycerides are 151.
