I have been experiencing sinus pressure and pain for many years, typically with symptoms like a runny nose, red eyes, sneezing, and sinus pain lasting for about a day every week or 10 days. Recently, I experienced pain and heaviness in my left eye, which was also slightly blurry in the morning. Additionally, my left nostril is more impacted than the right one, and my throat feels jammed up, causing nausea. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I was prescribed atorvastatin and metformin. My total cholesterol went down from 203 to 144, HDL cholesterol decreased from 34 to 25, and LDL decreased from 140 to 95. AST is now 53 (normal 35) and ALT is 83 (normal 46). Should I be worried about HDL not increasing as expected, and could the statin be causing elevated AST and ALT? How often should I monitor my liver enzymes, and what dietary changes should I make to potentially improve HDL levels?
