Welcome to HCM.
Don't get confuse about diet.
There is no need to worry for hb.12.5.
certain fruits like apple,cherry,tomato,bit,black grapes are helpful to increase your hb and no have effect on cholesterol.
Avoid junk food,cold drinks,white flour food,excessive sugar,oily food to control cholesterol.
Regular walking is helpful if you can.
Consult a good dietitian for better guidance.
