What is the best medication for high cholesterol?

My doctor prescribed me medication for my cholesterol but it's side effect is too much for me. Then my doctor prescribed me another medication for my cholesterol but this time, it makes me vomit and dizzy. None of the two medication works because I had my blood test and my cholesterol shoot up. Any suggestion?

What are some fruits and veggies that can lower your cholesterol?

My grandmother just died of stroke. And I don't think stroke is genetics in my family but I want to eat right and I do but the thing is I want to know what kind of food can lower high cholesterol. I don't think I have high cholesterol because I'm a vegetarian, but I want to keep my blood vessels clean and not clotted.

How can my cholesterol be very high if I eat a vegan diet?

I just found out that my cholesterol is in the highest category, including the LDL cholesterol. I am 25 years old, a normal weight, and I have been a vegetarian (but very close to a vegan) for most of my life. I am very upset and confused. Does anyone know why this might be happening?
