Help Understanding VAP Cholesterol Test

Help Understanding VAP Cholesterol Test

My father recently passed away, first bypass at 55, second at 62 and sudden death at 65.  I have always tried to stay reasonably fit and my cholesterol is relatively normal.  I take about 2 grams of fish oil, CoQ10, Vit C, Vit E.  I decided to have a more in depth cholesterol profile with a cardiologist along with a coronary calcium screening test.  I have a daughter that is 16 months old so I want to become more proactive.  I just turned 40, so I don't want to wait until 50 to find something out.  The cardiologist felt everything looked good, although things were just a little higher than a few months ago--maybe stress who knows.  I asked about a statin but he felt the numbers did not justify.   The VAP results are as follows,,,can anyone give me some feedback I need to live to be an old man for my daughter:

Total:  217
CRPHS:  .12

LDL:  148  (normally in 120 range)
HDL:  49   (last check 55)
VLDL:  18
Trig:  66
Non HDL:  165
APOB100 CALC:  121
LDL-R:  124
LP (a):  16 mg/dl
IDL:  8mg
Remnant:  18 mg/dl

Subclass Formation
HDL2:  12 mg/dl
HDL3:  37 mg/dl
LDL1:  10.5 mg/dl
LDL2:  11.9 mg/dl
LDL3:  79.7 md/gl
LDL4:  22.1 mg/dl

Apolipoprotein B:  97 mg/dl

Coronary Calcium Score 0

Blood pressure is normally in the 115/120 something over 70-80 something

I currently take no meds.
