I had a cholesterol check and my cholesterol was 236. I am 25 years old. My doctor is sending me to a lipid doctor when I asked him why he said something about my liver enzymes being high(I'm not sure it was enzymes but it was liver something)and didn't explain it any further and just walked out. I feel very concerned. Is this something to be concerned about. Does this mean there is something wrong with my liver. I take clonidine,nadolol and flovent can medications make these numbers high. I am at a normal weight, but don't exercise. I have asthma and a high heart rate upon standing. I don't have an appointment with the lipid doctor until may. can you please give me information on the liver and cholesterol. Thank you
