I am a 39 year old teacher working in a school. My lipid profile test results are: triglycerides 194, total cholesterol 209, LDL cholesterol 131, HDL cholesterol 39, VLDL 39, total cholesterol/HDL cholesterol ratio 5.36, and LDL cholesterol/HDL cholesterol ratio 3.36. Are my lipid profile test results normal or abnormal? If they are abnormal, what precautions should I take? Do I need to change my diet and avoid oily foods? Please suggest. Thank you. Regards, Minhaj

Your lipid values are a bit outside the ideal range, but not alarming. Triglycerides are slightly high, HDL (good cholesterol) is a bit low. Simple steps like walking daily, eating more fruits, nuts, and fiber can help. Reduce fried and oily foods no need to cut them entirely. These changes can improve your next report. Recheck after 6 months.

View allAttached is my report. I am very paranoid after seeing all news and I have a desk job plus PCOD. I tend to be inconsistent with workout and have anxiety due to PCOD. I stress eat at times. I do not smoke and rarely drink alcohol. I keep having thoughts that I might get a heart attack which creates anxiety because I feel I am not doing anything and this can happen as I respect fitness a lot. Now my LDL is the highest. Is it too late? I have now started walking daily and eating good food. What more can I do to not feel these thoughts? Are any further tests needed as per my reports? I sometimes feel chest tightness due to anxiety or is it in my mind? I am overweight by at least 15 kgs, my weight is 75 kgs and my height is 5.3. Do I need to take any medicines for cholesterol? Please tell me.
