I’ve been scrambling for information myself these past few months. My Lp(a) is 240nmol, I’m 69, no family history, somewhat elevated LDL and cholesterol, treadmill/echo test was good (11.7 mets). Although statins can raise Lp(a), at present the only treatment strategy is to get all other risk factors under control. There are ongoing clinical trials testing drugs to lower Lp(a), I’m looking forward to learning those results.

I started generic Crestor 20mg in May and have had no side effects and my ldl dropped from 140 to 70. I regret not starting stations sooner given their low cost and absence of side effects.

Good luck with your conversations with your health team!
