Brief Answer:
Elevated LDL-C / life style changes and repeat
Detailed Answer:
Dear friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
Most of the tests are normal – except high LDL-C (
Cholesterol) / and borderline
SGOT & SGPT (2
liver enzymes)…
________________________________________________________________
There are subdivisions of cholesterol – LDL, HDL, and so on.
LDL is bad cholesterol – lower, the better.
HDL is good cholesterol – higher, the better.
In the absence of any other risk factor 100 is ideal for LDL-C.
In the presence of
ischemia, 70 should be the aim.
Keep your weight to normal / even a little less
Quit
smoking, if you are a smoker
Do regular EXERCISE – say walking or jogging - 30 minutes a day / at least 5 days in a week.
Isometric exercise (like bull worker) is bad.
Healthy FOOD is a must. Avoid saturated fats – coconut oil, palm oil, butter, ghee, full cream milk...Avoid junk foods in particular – French fries have palm oil / Pizza has cheese / Indian sweets are made in ghee.../ Change to Poly-un-saturated oil – like sun flower oil. / Include Mono-un-saturated oil – Olive oil.
Repeat the test in 6 weeks.
Cholesterol can still be high, in spite of diet and exercise – you need drugs; Because it is also manufactured in the liver – and that is determined by heredity.
Statin is the first choice. Some start it straight away – even with normal levels, even without problems (Primary Prophylaxis)
__________________________________________________________
The enzymes are borderline / they are considered ‘significant’ if 3 times or above the upper limit…
Nothing to worry
Nothing need be done – except to avoid alcohol / reduce oravoid drugs like Paracetamol
Repeat along with lipids…

Good luck
Take care
Wishing all well
God bless
