Last year I was first diagnosed with about the same numbers. I lost some weight, changed my diet, joined a gym, took all the supplements which supposedly lower cholesterol. Result: my bad cholesterol (LDL) went down a whopping 40 points and my good (HDL) went up around 5. Big whoop, my LDL needed to go down around 140 points!

I put it off for a while, but am finally giving in to the notion that I can't control it enough on my own to make a signficant difference.
