New regimen: Stop red yeast rice, stop fish oil. Go to md. Get started on a statin medication, Crestor or Lipitor (atorvastatin) after first checking thyroid and liver function. After cholesterol comes under control and after you work with a nutritionist on your weight, then could consider 81 mg Aspirin per day.
