Is homocysteine 32 high

Homocysteine 32μmol/L is generally considered high.

Homocysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid, the normal value is 5-15μmol/L. Homocysteine 32μmol/L exceeds this range, so it indicates that the index is high. The increase of homocysteine may be caused by eating too much cholesterol food such as egg yolk, pig brain, pig lung and goose liver before examination, and may also be related to coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, cerebral infarction, acute myocardial infarction and other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

It is suggested that the examinee should further perform ECG, coronary angiography and cerebral CT angiography for definite diagnosis.
