Brief Answer:
good profile. HDL needs to be raised.
Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,
1. The target LDL cholesterol level in your case is 130 mg%. But your actual LDL cholesterol is 80 mg%. Hence it is very good.
2. The only abnormal value is HDL which I discussed in last answer.
Hope this clarifies the issue. Feel free to write if there is anytihng else.
