Doctor ordered lipid profile and my cholesterol was 202 (standard range was 125-199) should i be concerned? ldl was 118. hdl 57 and triglyceride 135

No: Your cholesterol/lipids are normal. Try to eat as healthy a diet as you can and maintain normal body weight. You certainly don't require any form of drug therapy.
