Hello,
You continue rosuvastatin and get treadmill test done. No need to start to start aspirin at this point of time. We can decide after treadmill test.
You should have a healthy lifestyle like avoiding fatty, oily and high calorie diet. Have low salt diet and monitor blood pressure regularly. 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.
