Hello
After reviewing the medical query raised by you I can understand your concern and I would like to tell you that your cholesterol levels are slightly towards the higher side. But these are just mildly elevated and in my opinion won’t require medications and can simply be taken care with the help of physical activity and diet.
Your crp level reports I didn’t found. Kindly reupload them.
