High cholesterol level
I am a 23(sex:male).Recently I have tested my fasting lipid profile from a lab.It shows that, HDL=51mg/dl, LDL=327mg/dl, Triglycerides=85mg/dl and Total cholesterol=390mg/dl
As my mother has high cholesterol,I've tested this curiously. Now what should I do.my height=5'6'', wt=67kg, blood pressure=120-80
Sir the reports are suggestive of Dyslipidemia and the cause of the same seems to be familial..
Next Steps
Consider the following
1.Avoid fatty foods
2.Brisk morning walk daily for five days in a week
3.Start Tab Atorsave-F(10/160) once at night initially for a month followed by repeat lipid profile after the same
4.Get an ECG done to see for cardiac involvement
