Post covid Deranged lipid profile.
We did full body checkup for my mother post covid.
Her lipid profile shows
Triglycerides - 234, cholesterol 208, ldl 124 and non hdl at 172.
Other than this her liver profile says sgot at 40 and ALP 113
We consulted nearby doctor and she said to take only diet control measures now.
But my mother is vegetarian, does eat fried food at all. Only once or twice a week she used to have paratha.
Please suggest if we should consult some other doctor and medication is needed for her.
Also, post covid she is taking diabetes medicine.
Hba1c is 6.7 and fbs is 126
Metformin 500 once a day
