Dear friend, welcome to HCM!!!as you rightly pointed out there are some lipid lowering drugs which can cause bloating .. please switch over to statin group of drugs like atorvastatin ... has less side effects... please note that lifestyle changes are very much essential to manage your lipid profile... eat your meal divide in to 4-5 small parts over the day... avoid eating processed / fast / fried / oily food stuffs ... thy to add more of ots, green leafy vegetables daily with fruits ... that will add more fibers to your gut and decrease the bloating also good to reduce your serum lipids... do exercise at least 1 hour or walk is surely needed ... do contact for any other queries ... THANK YOU
