We need more details. What is the BP, cholesterol, and heart rate? How is your general health? You are best speaking to the doctor who did the testing

I agree with Dr. Romano’s response. In general, it is best to discuss this with your own physician since he is familiar with your general health and will be happy to provide appropriate follow-up, further guidance as needed.
