Unfortunetely, high cholesterol has no symptoms. It can be only detected with the help of blood tests. Especially Lipid profile.

Dr. Hema Suggests...

Take a eGFR Test (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate) Test or Take a ALLERGY ANIMAL PANEL Test

What does it mean when your HDL and LDL are both low?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have done a lipid profile test and the results are total cholesterol 200, HDL 45, LDL 130, VLDL 25, and triglycerides 125. Are these normal? I recently recovered from COVID, I tested positive on October 6, and now I am okay. Are these reports normal or can recovery from COVID affect the results of the lipid profile?
