I have been told by my GP that my cholesterol levels were 7.3 and told me that I need to take medication, I declined the offer and he referred me to a dietician, I am 54 year old lady, I am not over weight, I'm very careful on what I eat, don't drink or smoke and do plenty exercise, my blood pressure is fine my father died of heart attack he was only 59, do you think that I should take medication?
