The purpose of the lipid profile test is to measure and assess if a person has any chances of heart disease. Additionally, as a routine test to determine if your cholesterol level is normal or falls into a borderline, intermediate or high-risk levels.
Dr. Yusuf Suggests...
Take a PROTHROMBIN TIME (PT/INR) Test or Take a ANTI MOG (ANTI MYELIN OLIGODENDROCYTE GLYCOPROTEIN) Test
