Thank you for the information. I have printed the information to give to my son. As far as talking to his doctor, my son is not very good at asking the right questions and I am going to try and go with him to his next appointment or give him some suggested questions to ask his doctor. His doctor is the same doctor my dad had and he is very thorough and does let us ask questions. When his condition was first detected his pressure was being monitored and has no problem with that but the doctor had mentioned the side effects of possibly putting him on blood pressure meds at such a young age could have a lasting effect on him down the road that was why I wanted to make sure the cholesterol meds did not have the same effect.
