Brief Answer: please see details. Detailed Answer: Dear Sir 1. You are taking 3 medicines for cholesterol abnormalities. Was these medications started before this lipid profile or you started them after this lipid profile? I do not prescribe any medication for this kind of profile in my patients. I only advise life style modifications. However if this profile has been obtained "on treatment" then it is different. 2. The weight should be optimized (body mass index should be ideally 23. Body mass index= weight in kilogram divided by square of height in meters). Daily exercise with aim of achieving 45 minutes per day at speed of 7 km/ hour. This should be under supervision of your local physician. Avoid sweets, all kind of fried food and do not exceed prescribed calorie intake per day. You can consult a dietitian for same. The diet should be rich in fibres and must not avoid fats altogether. Unsaturated fats in prescribed amount are necessary for body. You must not take alcohol. Must not smoke. You need to get your HBA1c (a blood test) to see if you are indeed a diabetic as your Fasting Glucose is higher than normal. Hope this helps. Feel free to discuss further. Sincerely Sukhvinder
