I had cholesterol done and nurse told me i had really good fats in diet fruit veg etc but bad fats overall was 6.4% is this bad , she gave me script statin but not taken them as spoke to doctor she said try diet first. Should i ask what my hdl and ldl are as she just said mine was really high overall. Any advice appreciated

    yes .. if LDL is high then just change your diet first along with exercise, cause statins has many bad side effects.
