Hello,
You have hypertension and hyperlipidemia, but that doesn't mean you will have heart attack every now and then. Likelihood of heart attack is less at this age group.
You should have a healthy lifestyle like avoiding fatty, oily and high calorie diet. Have low salt diet and monitor blood pressure regularly thrice a day for one week then once or twice a week. If bp is persistently more than 140/90 mmhg, then medicine needs to be hiked up. Regular exercises like brisk walking, jogging according your capacity atleast 30 min a day and 5 days a week. Lots of green leafy vegetables, fruits, fish once or twice a week, avoid meat. Avoid smoking and alcohol if any. There shouldn't abdominal fat deposition or obesity. Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts.
