Brief Answer:
Explained below,
Detailed Answer:
Hi again,
Thanks for writing back,
I have gone through your query and the details of the report attached,
The only parameter than concerns me a little is the homocystine levels. His cholesterol levels also seems to be mildly elevated. The rest of the blood parameters are nothing of concern, as they tend t alter based on laboratory and mechanical techniques.
I will detail you on the above parameters:
1) Homocysteine levels- this is an amino acid that is normally present in the body. The foods we eat generally are metabolized and then broken down into homocysteine levels in blood. But when certain factors like vitamin B6, B12, folic acid, which are involved in metabolism, are deficient, homocysteine levels tend to accumulate in the blood.
Therefore, I would suggest you to get the following work up done for your husband so as to look at the severity of the condition:
- Vitamin B6
- Vitamin B12
- Folic acid
You can consult with your treating doctor or any internal medicine specialist, to start treatment with Vit injections and medicines in accordance with your report.
2) Cholesterol: The cholesterol levels seems to be only slightly elevated and can certainly be managed by diet and proper exercise schedules.
A daily minimum 45 minutes of brisk walking is mandatory.
Cut down on all fast food or take aways.
Avoid red meat completely.
Rest all parameters seems to be normal.
I hope this helps,
Please feel free to discuss further or else kindly close the query and share your positive feedback,
Regards

Brief Answer:
Kindly detail on stomach issues
Detailed Answer:
Hello again,
Thanks for the follow up,
The variations in homocysteine levels can cause low back ache due to weakening of bones. Regarding stomach issues, kindly specify the details of his symptoms so that I can suggest better.
