How Should A Lipid Profile Test Report Be Interpreted?
Question: my age 31 Male, recently i done a LFT and lipid profile test the result was: SGPT 95.4 U/L, SGOT 77.8 U/L, VLDL cholestrol was 62.0 mg/dl, Serum Triglycerides 310.0 mg/dl. Is it harmful what should i do now precaution and medicine. Except this all is normal.
Hi Easysaral,
Your SGPT, SGOT are high normal. Your other personal history is important to interpret the report.
Your triglycerides (TG) are high and it is cause of cocern.
Wat is your weight and height?
Do you consume alcohol or smoke?
High TG's can be problematic in that it is a risk factor for cardio vascular disease. Can lead to pancreatitis and retinal damage with subsequent visual problems.
Consult a physician who will tell you about hypolipidemic drugs like
Atorvastatin, gemfibrozil,Bezafibrate, Ciprofibrate,clofibrate ,fenofibrate are available. You need prescription from doctor.
Avoid oily, fatty and fast food.
Keep good routine of exercise. Best is 45 min daily brisk walk.
Use Soya / Olive oil for cooking as it has PUFAs.
Keep XXXXXXX leafy vegs and salads in you diet.
Let me know if you have any more questions.

Dear XXXXXXX
Thanks again,
Firstly try to loose around 5kg atleast.
It's good that you have quit smoking.
Avoid drinking alcohol, atleast heavy drinking .
Consult your physician who will advise you the combination of atorvastatin and fibroic acid derivative. He will decide the dose and frequency of these medication as these are prescription drugs.
Sweating is normal. Some people tend to sweat a little more there is nothing to be afraid in this.
As you have history of smoking some lung damage may already have taken place, this may be a cause of occasional chest pain. It isn't concerning to me.
Hope Ive answered your queries.
Wish you good health.
Take care.

Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks again.
I am unaware of a condition called mouth eczema.
Based on your description, oral Lichen planus - in which pigmentation and ulceration of oral mucosa takes place needs to be ruled out. Patients with oral lichen planus cannot eat hot and spicy food and if eaten it gives rise to burning and pain in mouth.
There can be multiple other conditions with similar features.
Consult a competent dermatologist for physical examination. Proper treatment can be planned according to treatment.
There are many treatment options apart from steroids to treat oral lichen plans. They are effective and safe for long term and short term use. Discuss with a dermatologist.
Meanwhile you can use Xytee or OACE mouth gel.
Hope this suffices.
Take care.
