Pulse near lateral malleolus of fibiula

My father have had issue of high cholesterol and triglycerides since 15/17 years for which he took statin and since last two years he was managing it naturally with regular lipid profile , but his march test showed triglycerides of 400+ and normal cholesterol and the one he had in june showed a a 200 cholesterol and and 211 triglycerides and after covid last to last year his energy levels have dipped and suddenly while massaging his ankle i picked up his pulse near ankle (lateral malleolus fibula ) and since then i am worried he is not listening to me plus his resting plus I measured multiple times sometimes it is around 80 sometimes it is around 100 even while he is just watching tv lying on bed generally it is always above 80-90 1. Should i be worried about pulse in his lower leg and high resting pulse rate , {recently a family member of similar age succumbed to heart attack since then i am too worried although we dont have genetic heart issues } 2. Should i force him to get ecg echo

Cholestrol

I had severly high cholestrol of ldl 188 in march 2020 , and on march 2021 my ldl was 55 , i used no statin or anything controlled my weight from95-72 ans just an cholestrol lowering oriented diet and my lipi profile came.normal but after a year at start i was not regular though first 3 months had no effect at all ldl was 170 but after 6 months and 9 months ldl decreased exponentially, but my concern is which is giving me anxiety that is the damage already done i had cholestrol in me for 1 year they for sure have done harm as i have anger issue my bp would have rise cause inflammation, although i had 2 echos and ecg with gap of 1 year which were normal but i am still concerned can at any time i would get an heart attack because 1 year with high cholestrol, it is scary, should i get an ct angiogram too see if its all f9 or should i consult a psychiatric as i am going paranoid, i dont have any family history also.

High hsCRP

In a recent full body blood test, i found my hscrp level as 2.87 mg/L, which i feel is moderately high. I have a history of high cholesterol but it's under control after using statin. My present levels are TC 145, LDL 70, HDL 47, TGL 110. My fasting sugar is 112. Blood pr normal- 115/75. Tmt was negative a year back. I have problem of GERD and hiatal hernia. I had a history of moderate smoking, which i left 1.5 years back. Alcohol- very rare. My lifestyle is bit sedentary. On average, i try to take 5000-6000 steps a day (includes ~ 2 km brisk walk). Work stress level is at higher side. I completely avoid junk and fried food and try to take as much as possible vegetables and fruits. I avoid red meat,  prefer fish and chicken. Should i be worried of this high hsCRP level? Your guidance will be highly appreciated. What should i do to reduce the level?
