Comprehensive lipid & metabolic panel
28 Mar 2026 · ordered by Dr. Andrei Petrescu
Your cholesterol and blood-sugar picture is mostly reassuring, with two values worth a closer look: LDL cholesterol is at the upper end of the 'borderline' range, and your fasting insulin is mildly elevated. Neither is urgent — they're the kind of numbers a well-timed nutrition change usually moves. We'll recheck at your next annual.
| Metric | Value | Reference | Flag |
|---|---|---|---|
Total cholesterol Slightly above the ideal ceiling of 200 mg/dL. Driven by LDL in your case. | 204mg/dL | 125–200 | attention |
LDL cholesterol The 'bad' cholesterol. Borderline-high. Below 100 is optimal if you have any cardio risk. | 138mg/dL | 0–130 | high |
HDL cholesterol Comfortably high — the 'good' cholesterol. Protective. | 64mg/dL | 40–100 | In range |
Triglycerides Well within range. | 112mg/dL | 0–150 | In range |
Fasting glucose Normal. | 94mg/dL | 70–100 | In range |
Fasting insulin Mildly elevated. An early signal of insulin resistance. | 14.2µIU/mL | 2–12 | high |
HbA1c Comfortable. No indication of diabetes risk at the moment. | 5.4% | 4–5.6 | In range |
hsCRP Low-grade inflammation is not elevated. | 0.9mg/L | 0–3 | In range |
