Hello
Present findings suggest borderline cholesterol level and mildly increased LDL level.
Other factors are almost normal.
You are doing well with medicines and you should take it continuously.
Additionally you should avoid fatty food and go for brisk walk.
Take lot of fibers in your diet in the form of fruits and vegetables.
Get well soon.
Take Care
