What Does This Lipid Profile Test Report Indicate?
Question: This is my Lipid (Fat) Profile mg/dL:
Cholesterol 162.12
Triglycerides 268.46
HDL- Chol 30.49
LDL - Chol 78.39
Chol/HDL Ratio 5.3
Triglyc/HDL Ratio 8.8
I am 86kg (approx 190 lbs) and 5'7" and 35 tears old female.
My waist is 36 inches. BMI 29
I have a family history of heart disease and high cholesterol. I don't smoke and have 1 glass of alcohol once or twice a month. I exercise 3 times a week. I am on Fluanxol depot for schizophrenia which caused my weight to gain rapidly 15 to 20kg in a year. It stabilized at 86 kg and has remained that way for 3 years. Am i going to have a stroke or a heart attack in the near future looking at my numbers? Is anything way out of order? Do i need medication? Thank you
