Health anxiety- heart issues/ lipoprotein

Hi, I struggle with anxiety as it is- did a blue rest test just as a checkup. It was mainly due to the fact that I’m going through peri menopause and wanted to check if everything was as it should be- my lipoproteins ( never heard of it before now) has come up as high. All other markers normal and I’m 45. When I got the report I just took it as a warning but last night my anxiety took over and now I’m convinced I’m about to have a heart attack and there are blocks. My dad’s family have a history of heart disease which is even more worrying for me - not sure how to calm down. I have let my practice know of the result and a nurse is ringing me on Wednesday for a telephone conversation- part of me feels well if it’s serious they would ring sooner but my anxiety is also saying that they are not taking me seriously - not sure how to cam down
