Hi,
When your blood samples will be ready your doctor will assess your risks and will prescribe you medication in case you need it.
Besides it you should do healthy lifestyle.
You should restrict animal fat in your diet, should eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, more fish.
You should lose weight if you are overweight.
You should exercise much.
You should stop smoking if you smoke.
And if you have high blood pressure you should shurely take medication for it.
Take care
