Chronic Health Conditions Discussion and Support

The only way, that I know of, to avoid medication is to increase your level of good cholesterol. My good cholesterol level is really high (82). The good cholesterol level was high enough to ameliorate the damage that could be caused by the bad cholesterol. I was not prescribed medication.

About 20 years ago, my good levels were about 56. My weight is about the same now as it was then. The difference, I believe, is that I no longer have a car and walk, walk, walk, everywhere.
