You need to speak to your GP about that one, they will help you in regards to regime, diet etc.
This sounds very much like homework on a clinical course.....

Depends on the patient - could be diet, could be introduction of statins - the GP gave me both. Blood tests every 2-3 months. Weight loss recommended.
PS this would have been better posted under the Health section, where all our replies have a caveat - but it being in Education makes me more believing that this is a basic assignment question.
2 questions need answering.
1) What is the breakdown of HDL/LDL?
2)Does the patient need a "treatment plan" at all?

I agree with Chilli.
