What Does My Lab Test Report Indicate?
Question: Can you please tell me what it all this means thanks
Brief Answer:
Slightly increased risk for cardiovascular disease.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
Your lipid profile shows that you have normal total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol. HDL ( the good cholesterol) is low. Triglycerides is high.
The Total Cholesterol / HDL ratio is high and that increases the risk for heart attack and stroke more than if the TC/HDL was low.
You can calculate your risk at www.qrisk.org.
Do get back to me if you have more queries.
Take care,
