You should take iron rich food like dates, green leafy vegetables, dry fruits, jaggery etc.
Yoh should also take oral iron preparation like ferrous sulphate or ferrous fumarate.
Your kidney function test, liver function test, thyroid function test, electrolytes,vitamins and minerals ANA, amylase, lipase all are normal.

Brief Answer:
You can try to control with diet and exercise.
Detailed Answer:
Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Changes in lymphocytes and other components are insignificant. Their remarks about normochromic normocytic rbc. It suggest that your rbcs are normal in size and normal in color(adequate hemoglobin in rbc). So there is nothing to worry about that.
Your swelling in feet may be due to nonspecific cause.
For cholesterol control you can try with diet and exercise.
You should take low fat diet with high amount of poly unsaturated fatty acids.
You should go for regular exercise like walking, swimming, cycling etc.
You should repeat your cholesterol after 3 months. If their levels comes to normal then there is no need of drugs. But if it still remains at higher level then drugs are required to control that.
Hope I have answered your question. If you still have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
