Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your triglycerides level is high. You should take low fat diet with high amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids.
Your MCV is slightly higher. You should go for serum B12 level once. You may have vit b12 deficiency.
Your rest all reports are normal. No need to worry.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
