  • 23. Ask the doctor. I had a stent put in several years ago, at age 59. Thanks to a better diet, more exercise, a statin, and niacin, my LDL, HDL, and triglycerides are excellent. My latest nuclear stress test showed some ischemia, even though I am not having any symptoms, and the follow up angiogram showed several new blockages requiring two additional stents. I think my cardiologist should order tests like apolipoprotein A, LDL particle size and number, etc., to dig more deeply into why my coronary arteries keep getting clogged despite my best efforts. Is that a good idea or a waste of time and money?

  • 26. Ask the doctor. I am a 64-year-old woman with high cholesterol caused by bad genes (familial hypercholesterolemia). Without medication, my cholesterol is above 450 mg/dL. So I am taking high-dose Lipitor (80 mg/day), WelChol, and Zetia to lower my cholesterol. I sometimes have pain and stiffness in my knees, and my shoulder, elbow, and wrist joints, plus the muscles in between, are stiff in the morning and hurt during the day. Two years ago I was diagnosed with bursitis in my hips. Could these problems be from the Lipitor? If so, is there another statin I could take that wouldn't do this?

  • 27. I am a 65-year-old woman with a total cholesterol level of 233 mg/dL. My HDL is 78 mg/dL and my LDL is 137 mg/dL. My doctor says I have hypercholesterolemia. What do I need to do?

  • 28. Ask the doctor. I am 70 years old, and since I started taking testosterone to boost below-normal levels of that hormone, my LDL and HDL levels have dropped. What's the cholesterol-testosterone connection?

  • 29. Ask the doctor. My doctor is focused on keeping my LDL in a good range, but she doesn't seem too concerned that my HDL is on the low side. Shouldn't it get the same attention?

  • 30. Ask the doctor. I am a 59-year-old man. The results of my latest blood test showed that my LDL cholesterol was 67, which was flagged as low. (I do not take any cholesterol-lowering drugs.) Should I be worried, or do anything to raise my LDL?

  • 35. By the way, doctor. My cholesterol numbers are as follows: Total-220; HDL-82 (it's been anywhere from 75 to 85 for the last 20 years); LDL-150; total-to-HDL ratio-2.7. I'm 85, and the heart doctor wants to put me on a statin. I feel great; I'm not overweight, and I don't have any heart problems. I don't take any medications except a daily 81-mg baby aspirin. Do I need to take a statin?

  • 36. Ask the doctor. Just two years ago, my total cholesterol was 175 mg/dL, and my LDL cholesterol was 128 mg/dL. This week my doctor told me that my cholesterol was 240 and my LDL was 170. I haven't gained any weight or changed my diet--what's going on?

  • 37. By the way, doctor. I am 59 years old, in good health, and have been on HRT (estrogen and progesterone) for about 10 years. I have tried several different preparations, but despite this, have developed a uterine fibroid, experienced indigestion, gained 20 pounds, and had one abnormal mammogram (with, thankfully, a negative biopsy). Because there is heart disease in my family, my doctor wants me to stay on HRT for the rest of my life. Can you suggest any alternatives?

  • 40. Ask the doctor. I am a 73-year-old woman and just found out that I have very high LDL cholesterol (197 mg/dL). I don't have any symptoms of heart disease and I hate taking pills, so I am reluctant to take cholesterol-lowering drugs. One doctor told me I should have a special CT scan of my heart to help decide whether to take medications, but I learned I would have to pay $750 for the test since it isn't covered by insurance. Should I do it?
