2017-07-14 06:18:18
My Husband recently got a lipid profile and blood sugar fasting test conducted on himself and the results was scary he's got a blood sugar level of 109, his overall cholesterol is 297, triglycerides is 253, HDL is 62, LDL is 179 VLDL is 50.6 , ldl/hdl ratio is 2.9, cholesterol /hdl ratio is 4.8. Is there any reason to be worried? He is a fit person and he also doesn't have any other medical issues however his father is a pacemaker patient. What is the best step we can take considering this report.
