(20080815). I am 72, had a heart attack 16 years ago, and had angioplasty at Cleveland Clinic. My LDL was over 100 and HDL was in the low 30s. I take rosuvastatin and now my LDL is below 70, but my HDL has been driven down also, to 22. I am unable to raise HDL independent of LDL. Is it more important to control LDL below 70 and let HDL find its own level?. : Heart advisor.
