Actually with my family disorder it is the tryglycerides which cause the problem. Proper diet and weight pretty much knock down the cholesterol (which for me can spike up and down like a techstock, depending on what I ate 24 hrs ago), but the triglycerides never seem to get within normal: thus the lopid, which works for my two brothers too. But I will ask my doctor about Glucophage. Actually my Dad is doing very well cariovascular wise (even though he has had triglyceride readings around 700 !). Actually he has developed fairly serious stomach and intestinal problems, probably as a result of his low fat diet and the cholesterol lowering drugs !! You can't win, you know.
