can stations be avoided in cases of high cholesterol
hello when patients present to me in the hospital with a similar presentation considering your age family history I commence them on stations initially you should use stations for atleast a month or two before trying out the option of diet or other natural methods at your age it is slower to loose weight so yes it is necessary that you use stations for atleast the first to months till your total cholesterol has dropped to atleast 200 my dl before continuing with diet and supplement perhaps stations rarely have side effects you do not need stress test now it is mostly indicated when you are having symptoms such as shortness of breath chest pain etc for now it is not necessary I advise you take the station for a couple of weeks first you can switch to diet and supplement once your total cholesterol is below 200 my dl also continue with all other medications as prescribed hopefully you will be fine best regards
