My LP a came in at 283. I had already shifted to a mostly plant based diet based on Dr. Esselstyn's book since July 2023. I have an article from another source that if you are eating a diet as you mention above, stay active and get exercise, the extremely high Lp a risks are relatively minor. The other key seems to be to check you "high Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein" and if it is low, again, the risks seem much less if not very low. I am still researching to learn more that I can do and will try to share any information I find with you. I too am looking for help. My cardiologist was of little help since their is no pharma treatment yet approved that is practical for me, so far. Several clinical trials are in progress but not expected to be approved until 2025 or later.

there are some clinical trials open for participation in this area if you are interested. Go to clinicaltrials.gov and filter for Lp (a) to find them
