Hi,

UK / Europe units are different therefore it is difficult to understand the numbers given!

May be you can convert the units to European units?

There are conversion charts available online and as far as I can see your HDL is 0.8 mmol; LDL 2.38mmol ; trigs 4.8; and ratio 0.12. Bala I'm sure will tell you what these numbers mean. What is the total I wonder? It would appear to me that the trigs look high.
