Sir, I have done my lipid profile test. Total cholesterol is 171, triglycerides 165, HDL 33, LDL 105, and VLDL 33. Please suggest, is this really dangerous and should I take medicines?

Your results are not dangerous but slightly imbalanced. HDL is a bit low and triglycerides are mildly high. These can often be corrected with regular walking, healthy eating, and reduced oily food. You may not need medicines immediately repeat your test in 3 months to check improvement. Consider getting an LFT done to check proper liver functioning.

Attached 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.

I am having frequent urination. Sometime back, there was itching on my arms and redness, which gets relieved automatically after 1 to 2 hours. I went for a blood checkup and received my report. It shows high LDL and triglycerides, and low HDL. I am doing exercise regularly for half an hour. I need suggestions? My HDL cholesterol is 27.7 mg/dl, LDL/HDL ratio is 3.6, and serum albumin is 4.84 g/dl. The rest of the parameters are in the attached picture.
