Hi, I was feeling headache, shortness of breath and mild chest comfort. When I got my test done it shows elevated cholesterol. Total cholesterol - 350, ldl -200, hdl - 48. What should I do to reduce cholesterol quickly. Shall I take allopathic medicine? Or any other alternate way to reduce it? Please guide.
