Hi

LDL is bad cholesterol – lower, the better / 100 is the aim.
Need Life style changes - weight to normal / No tobacco or alcohol / Diet and exercise
Repeat the test in 6 weeks… if still high, you need drugs (manufactured in the liver, determined by heredity.) Statin is the first choice.

hello,
welcome to HCM
total cholesterol 220 is not a matter of panic when other parameters are normal..
it can be kept under normal level without medication also.
for that you have to do
regular exercises
food rich in dietary fiber
fat content less with more PUFA intake.
hope this is helpful
