Cholesterol levels- can anyone help?

[LizzieSiddal]

Hi I recently had bloods done. Dr said all ok on telephone. I then downloaded the NHS app yesterday, looked at my blood tests and it said “Action required-speak to Dr”. I looked and I think it’s my cholesterol results, the ones I’ve circled seem high but my Ratio of 3.6 is ok I think.

I will phone the drs again, but probably won’t get to speak to one for weeks. Do I need to begin trying to lower my cholesterol- I’m not over weight and blood pressure is absolutely fine.

Sorry uploaded the 2 photos - they have same info on them.

Thanks!

I had similar, my cholesterol was just over 6. My doctor said that it was on the high side, but since I don't have any other risk factors she was not concerned.

It's a 'computer says no' situation. I would have more confidence in a medically qualified human being.

Thanks MrsAudrey, I see what you mean by the computer thing.
I will “watch” my intake of fatty stuff, lockdown has meant a lot of cake and biscuits, so will cut down there and hopefully levels will reduce a bit.
