Hi!, as you are just 31 yrs, your Lipid profile report really looks bad, and you have family history of IHD as well.
Although you are young, we do nowadays see youngsters having heart problem as well. Since your TMT report mentions Mild Positive, I would suggest you to further evaluate. Coronary angiogram only is not option, there are other testes as well.
Yea definatly you have to get back into a good Lifestyle habits - Diet & exercise is a must, and repeat Lipid profile after 2 months.
