Fasting lipid profile and crp values.
Below are fasting lipid profile values for my mother post 17days of covid recovery.
Triglycerides - 176
LDL - 140
HDL - 32
Cholesterol total - 207
CRP is 10.2
CBC shows differential lymphocytes as 46% and neutrophils as 40%
Total WBC is 7600.
D dimer is normal now was elevated earlier, taking eliquis 2.5mg twice (5 days medicine course left to complete)
Taking Metformin 500 twice.
Was on 16mg medrol dose for 5 days and tapered down to 8 mg and 4mg.
Worried if the high crp is due to some secondary infection like black fungus or due to elevated lipid profile results
Please suggest if there is something to worry

No need to worry. U have to monitor symptoms like eye and facial pain,headaches, nasal discharge for black fungus.
For Lipid profile, no need to worry. Mention ur mothers age and is she diabetic prior to covid also. These information will guide in starting statin therapy
