My lp(a) is over 200 nmol/L, LDL is under 100, apob is under 70. Can’t do more on lifestyle at this point. My doctor put me on 20mg rosuvastatin.
I’m assuming this is to drive my LDL as low as possible? It’s not a “low dosage”, so wanted to check if other people with similar stats are also taking a similar dose?
Thinking of talking to the doc to see if weaning to a lower dose might still be ok. Don’t want to take too much meds if it’s not necessary…as I read there is some risk for increased insulin insensitivity.
