Did not just rely on the My Chart reports but set up a series of labs to see what the lipid panel now shows. Dr. Hilty listened to my questions and discussed the outline of treatment going forward. Prescribed new medication to see if it made any difference in my labs. Before starting a more aggressive treatment.
