Confused by high qrisk2 score despite healthy lifestyle

My general practitioner informed me that my qrisk2 assessment indicated a high cardiovascular disease risk, necessitating statin medication. However, my recent blood tests reveal completely normal cholesterol levels. Upon investigating the qrisk2 criteria, I've discovered that I don't match any of the typical risk factors associated with this score. I'm a non-smoker, consume minimal alcohol, have no family history of cardiovascular disease, maintain a healthy diet, and am at an ideal weight. This raises significant questions about how such a high qrisk2 score was calculated. I'm uncertain whether there might be an error in the assessment, and I'm considering seeking a second opinion from another healthcare professional to clarify these discrepancies.
