Total cholesterol levels is not significant. And no need to worry now. LDL and triglyceride levels are always significant.
Next Steps
if your l LDL is more than 200, triglyceride more than 150, that will endanger your blood vessels, heart, nervous system. HDL should be normal or high.
Health Tips
if levels are high take tablet Atorva with fenofebrate combination one in night daily. avoid red meat, saturated fats, increase fibre in your diet
