Simvastatin and chlosterol

Followup to my June 7th posting. I have since started Simvastatin again, and was actually off of it for a week. I have had a comprehensive blood test, been to the doc, and everything is ok, except my LDLs are high and total Cholesterol is still 204. The weather here has finally dried out and all my aches and pains have subsided. I'm walking briskly 3 miles a day after work, hiking on weekends. I'm adding foods to lower my LDLs and raise the HDLs in addition to 80mg Simvastatin. Also I'm eating less, and have cut most of my red meat and fatty foods from my diet. I'm 6', 187 lbs. and 59 yo. I actually feel good now, and nothing has changed except I'm getting more exercise, eating less and healthier, and it quit raining.
