I went to te dr yesterday for my every three month check up and I got my physical test results back and my dr said my Cholesterol was extremely high and it could risk heart disease or a heart attack and that I need to change my diet w excrise etc I've already known I had high Cholesterol but now he's upper in my dose to 20mg instead of 10mg I'm so scared right now! He's also sending me to a cardio dr. Keep me in prayers pls!!!

I'm sorry you got this news, but look at it this way...you've identified this NOW, and have a chance to make changes, be proactive, and get healthier to decrease your risk of heart disease.  You've got some work ahead of you...ask your doctor for help with things like nutrition/diet/weight loss (if applicable), and also recommendations for where to start with an exercise program.  Are you active now?  

The one great bonus to this is, as you begin to get healthier, you'll not only feel better PHYSICALLY, but mentally as well.  Making positive lifestyle changes will help your anxiety a lot!

Keep us posted.
