Your story is a classic one for heart disease in young males. Your persistence paid off though as most males would be in denial all the way to the grave with those symptoms. I also wish I would have taken care of my high cholesterol when I was younger. I have been on medications for years now but knew of my condition in my latter 20's. I am thankful my cholesterol and triglycerides are within a tolerable range currently.

Glad to hear you are doing well.
