On a quick lipid profile check i find that the total cholestrol is 202 mg/dl, with the LDL being 145.3 and HDL 30.9 mg/dl, and the VLDL being 25.8 mg/dl. It is bad, cos' i think the normal total cholestrol should be only up to 200, and I also know that LDL is quite dangerous, leading to heart diseases. However, I was just thinking on another issue, that I have been having bad throat and cough problems, where I was having a cough syrup which contains diphenhydramine. It wasnt regular, but on and off. Could this trigger or have anything to do with the high rise in the cholestrol level ? I am worried, and I know what I should be doing. But could someone tell me if this is cos' of the medicine or if it is generally cos' of the junk food that i am involved with right now, along with bad timings or intervals of food intake.
