Have you noticed any side effects that you could attribute to statins? They are now widely perceived as being much worse than what they allegedly "cure".
If I was in your position I'd find a specialist who could run a test that would look at more than just straight HDL and LDL. Lipoprotein is one that springs to mind, plus in the States you can have things like arterial compliance tests that I'd always go for.
If I had high "bad" LDL I'd try kyolic garlic before a statin. That usually knocks the basic LDL reading down a good few points.
Fortunately, I've had no side effects from taking statins thus far and I've taken them for decades. No muscle weakness or pain, no liver issues, no digestive problems, never got a rash, blood sugar is fine and my memory seems to be fine even though I am rapidly becoming ancient. I have complete blood work done at minimum twice a year. I've not had a arterial compliance test. However, because I have atrial fibrillation, I have had a couple of EKG's and echo cardiograms over years, one just last month. I take my blood pressure and pulse at least once daily. I believe my cardio vascular system is well monitored. I've had an irregular heartbeat since childhood.
I do take some over-the-counter supplements which are supposedly beneficial to hearth and vascular function. I take Slo-Niacin, CoQ10, Magnesium, low-dose aspirin and drink a glass of V-8 to insure I get a good dose of potassium daily. Recently, I started taking a beta blocker to help with atrial fibrillation.
As you can probably tell, I try to stay on top of my health. If I were willing to get more serious about diet and exercise, that would probably be a benefit too. But sometimes quality of life and just enjoying oneself has to be part of the equation too. Because I am on HRT, I have blood work done for my urologist as well. About once a year, he wants a full panel. If anything, my doctors and I may be overly cautious with regards to my heart health. But hey, I never had a heart attack and don't want one either.
