Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.
Welcome to Health Care Magic.
My name is Dr Muhammad Ahmad & i will look into your problem.

I have gone through your query and would try to help you in the best possible way.

Your Cholesterol is 253 which is HIGh in your age it should be below 180
HDLC is "good cholesterol" which is 80 that is a good thins
LDCLA which is bad cholesterol is in a higher range
Triglycerides are OK


Why Increased Cholesterol?
Some people lead a very healthy life but still their cholesterol is high,thats because of their family history and their liver,,,liver of some people produce less colesterol and liver of some produces more and your case looks like the late one.


Suggestions:

If i were your doctor i would suggest you.
(1) 10mg Rosuvastatin 1 tablet at night daily
(2) One capsule of cord liver oil
(3) Green tea in morning



And get you lipids checked a month later hopefully there will be improvement but mind you DON'T NEGLECT 253 its dangerous. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.



Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow
up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
Wishing you good health
