Your Triglycerides level and Cholesterol level are high. You should get the test done again after one month after you have been following lifestyle modifications for a month. If the report is still high then you should consult a General Physician.

Your total cholesterol is high , triglycerides level is high and LDL is borderline high
If you have changed your life style and diet habits recently ,wait till you have completed 6 months.
If it's more than 6 months , medications may be needed after your doctor estimates your ASCVD 10 year risk category score . Simultaneously you have to continue your diet , exercise
