hai,
your husband LDL level indicates high level of cardiovascular disease.
SGPT level indicates fatty liver. (excluding other parameters).
NO need to worry as your husband have started with diet plan and exercise that will help you in bring this value to normal.
After one month of follow up lipid,liver profile investigation
however consult general physician to investigate further and discuss whether any medication is needed.
thank you
