Is homocysteine 109 serious?

The normal range of homocysteine is 5-15μmol/L, which can be used to assist in the diagnosis of coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction and other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. If it is only slightly elevated and there is no obvious organic lesion, it may be related to physiological factors such as age, alcoholism, smoking and excessive drinking of coffee. Generally, it is not serious. However, 109μmol/L is much higher than the normal value, belonging to an abnormal manifestation, which may be related to myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, coronary atherosclerotic heart disease and other diseases. If not treated in time, it may endanger health and life safety, so homocysteine 109μmol/L is generally serious.
