High cholesterol needs lifestyle changes such as low fat diet, daily walk, and stress control. If very high and outside normal limits, kindly visit a doctor to start medication. BP monitoring is also needed. Avoid oily foods. For neck issues, maintain posture and see a physiotherapist if pain persists.

Hello Doctor, I am suffering from high TG and hyperbilirubinemia since 2016. The doctor told me that since I am suffering from hyperbilirubinemia for the last 12 years, it is Gilbert Syndrome. For TG, some doctors are suggesting diet control and are afraid to give medication as TG is associated with liver. A few doctors suggested Fenofibrate but I am afraid to take it. Please suggest? I have attached my report with medication details. Please help me.
