Brief Answer:
Due to upper respiratory tract infection.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

That is what showed in the report that there is some infection. Rest is normal. I would suggest you complete the course and drink lots of fluids. You can repeat Lipid profile once you are fully recovered after 3 months to check the GGT levels.

Excessive drowsiness is because of antibiotics and dehydration. Drink lots of soups and sleep well. You will get better. Take lots of curds and buttermilk.

I hope this answered your query.

Because of throat infection I was avoiding curd and buttermilk and lemon drink as it hurts my throat.

Can I include something else?

What is Urea ? It is high side
Urea / Creatinine Ratio 44.18H
20 - 35 mg/dl

whereas , Uric Acid is normal

I also have a query for my fasting sugar -
Blood Sugar Fasting 108.9 70 - 110 mg/dl
HbA1C (Glycosylated haemoglobin) 5.5 4.8-6.0 %

It is at Good Control level. But my sugar intake is minimal... how to handle it.

And Good Cholestrol is very less... how to tackle ths?

Brief Answer:
As explained below

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

You can drink warm lemon water with a tablespoon of honey for a week and take soups. Avoid curd and buttermilk, no problem.

Urea / Creatinine ration is deranged because of dehydration. Sugar levels are normal and in good control. Not to worry. I would suggest you walk regularly for half an hour. That will suffice. Regular exercise will increase the good cholesterol as well. You can add olive oil to your diet and have 4 to 5 dates every day.

I hope this answered your query.
