What Does Blood Test Reports Suggest?
I am a medical student year 4 in Cambodia. I have a patient.
A 67-year-old man did his blood test.
It is different for cholestérol.
Cholestérol / HDL : 5,74 / (val 0,00 -5,00)
Cholesterol total : 6,03 / (val 3,80 - 5,20) / mmo1/L
Cholesterol / HDL : 1,05 / (val 0,88-1,40) / mmo1/L
Cholestérol - LDL : 3,90 (valeur 1,80 - 4,10) / mmo1/L
Triglycerides: 2,36 (valeur 0,40 - 2,30 / mmo1/L
+ l'Hémoglobine Glyquée (what is that?) :
6,1 (valeur 4,0 - 6,0)
Please tell me your opinion about it.
He still sleeps very bad and wake up many times in the night sweating and heart beating.
Waiting for your reply as soon as possible.
All the best!

HI,
Thanks for writing in.
The patient has a slightly higher total cholesterol. This is not very significant in causing night sweats and palpitations. You need to get the patient assessed for common conditions like hart rhythm disturbances, generalized anxiety disorders and thyroid related disorders. Cholesterol related problems are less likely to do with night sweats and palpitations. This is because he only has total cholesterol slightly over normal.
