Dear
In the nut shell these are not alarming
Also you just had stress test
What you have to make sure is to change your lifestyle and eating habit.
Take an advice from dietician
Stick to a schedule, exercise well, throw anxiety away.
Cholestrol is also related to age
You are young and you can reduce the LDL efficiently with exercise and dieting.
Wish you good future.
