Remember—I am not your doctor! You haven’t mentioned your age although it doesn’t have to be a factor. I have similar numbers now (and I don’t know if they will go away or change) but my PCP is a ‘numbers’ guy. He did the math and showed me how much a statin would change my levels and it was negligible. So he doesn’t want to add more medication for such minimal results. I—on the other hand—I have read here that others are taking a certain form of K2 (m7) so I tried that but no change and had stomach issues. The theory is that K2 takes the calcium—I don’t remember from where, if it’s the plaque? and sends it to the bones which would be a win-win. Going to research and try again because I also tried red yeast rice which is like taking a statin and you have to find one with no contaminant and that also wrecked my stomach. I have always wondered how statins lower the numbers. Do they actually remove the plaque? More to discuss at my annual visit…
