Cholesterol Triglicerides too high and HDL too low - what to use?

I have been taking simvistatin for a couple of years and should have had my cholesterol levels tested sooner.  It turns out I have bad readings, yesterday were:

Cholesterol 164

Tryglicerides 432

HDL 27

LDL 137

I do not trust my doctors recommendations as this med did not work, so I am asking to have it switched.

Anyone with these problems have a medicine that has worked for them and has taken that med for years with minimal side effects?

Thank you smile

    I've taken different statins and when my LDL was below the recommended level  my HDL was below the recommended level  To me this was dangerous so I gave them up.
