Diagnosed With Hemolytic Anemia, Jaundice. Bilirubin, LDL And Triglycerides Abnormal. On Folic Acid. What Is The Best Remedy?

Hi I had my general check up about 3 months ago in Philippnes and I was diagnosed with Hemolytic Anemia. Actually i had jaundice since childhood and now I am 35 years old. As per the results, all my internal organs are fine and works well. However, my total bilibrubin (51 umol/L), unconj bili (41 umol/L which is normal) direct bili (9 umol/L), LDL (3.06 mmol/L) and triglycerides (2.04 mmol/L) are too high as per my doc. He prescribed me with "atorva 20mg", folic acid 20 capsule only and daily intake of vit. c.
I had fear actually as I work abroad alone away from my family so i take some suppliments like garlic plus tablets, garcinia mangostana capsules, omega capsule and centrum as additional suppliments. For more than 2 months after taking these I suffer from severe body itching even at work and night time.
Yesterday I had my check up and my triglycerides (186mg/dl) and hemoglobin (17.2 g/dl - normal). The doc here prescribed me with lepathyl and atorvastatine 10mg daily.
Please advise me what to do and what remedy suits for me. Thanks and more power to you guys. God bless...
