Hi Guresh,
Your
TSH level is high which signifies
hypothyroidism and you have been started on treatment. This may decrease your cholesterol and weight however that will depend upon your diet and exercise. You are accumulating risk factors for coronary artery disease and diabetes is one of them. Though HBA1C value of 7 is alright for present but your consumption of empty calories like drinks (7 KCal/ Gm of alcohol) and lack of exercise (actually you ought to do brisk walk for about 40 minutes at the speed of 5 Km/hour), cut down of all kinds of fats/oils/ghee and limit your Sugar intake. That will make difference. Your cholesterol value of 234 even in absence of
lipid profile needs treatment for which you will have to consult a doctor (it is prescription medicine and your thyroid doctor can prescribe it). Let me reiterate risk factors for you to take care of:
A: MODIFIABLE RISK FACTORS
