i would google it and learn what i could. is your father overweight? and has he always had high levels? 900 is unheard of with me.

i'd be sure of the number and then i would be very supportive with his med plan and his eating habits.

exercise is vital.

cholesterol causes a buildup of plaque in our arteries and that deprives our heart of an adequate blood flow and that can call for bypass surgery.

and, as always, no one solution works for everyone. so, MP, find out all you can about what's going on and talk to your dad. and good luck, love, pat
