Hello, I am really worried about your lipid profile and you don't need medication for the same at present. Some exercise will help to bring your HdL (good cholesterol) a little higher, get your hemoglobin, thyroid profile, vit d and vital b12 (if vegan) , and mail me reports or see your gp with the same. Regards
