Brief Answer:
Moderate high cholesterol.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your query and understand your concerns.

Besides moderate high values of blood cholesterol level, I don't see any other abnormalities in your recent blood work.

It is not responsible about your symptoms.

Numbness may be related to anxiety disorder, but also may be related to peripheral neuropathy, or damage of peripheral nerves by several factors such low vitamin B12, alcohol use, viral infection, diabetes etc.

Hope you found the answer helpful.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Greetings.

Brief Answer:
Diet is important.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome back.

I think cholesterol should be lowered by avoiding it in the diet, in the first place.

Atorvastatin may help in lowering it also, and 10 mg/daily should be sufficient.

Hope I helped you.

Take care.
