Hello and thank you for using HCM.I carefully read your question and I understand your concern.
I will try to explain you something and give you my opinion.

In fact,you are very young and you have high triglyceride and cholesterol levels.

You should know that there are some hereditary or genetic factors that cause this high values.There are some genetic characteristics that makes your metabolism or your cells inable to clean cholesterol from the body.

This is why you have high values at a very jung age.A secondary reason is your food intake or your diet.

It is essential to avoid high cholesterol food, fast food, pizzas, white bread, sweeties and to have regullar physical activity minimaly 40 minutes every day.

You can try this together whith medical treatment and repeat the blood analyze after one month. If high values persist than you shoud rise the dosage but not stop it.If it is hereditary you should take them life long.

Hope I was helpfull.
Best regards.
