hello,I have gone through your question.Thanks for using HCM.i understand from your question that you are receiving Ezetimibe and fenofibric ,I suggest that you must take statin group of cholesterol lowering medicine,viz.Tab.Atorvastatin 10 mg at bed time.unless you have any side effects you must continue life long.
looking at your complaints,I recommend that you must get your ECG and stress testing done.
My best wishes
