Homocysteine 20.80 High Why

Homocysteine 20.80μmol/L is usually considered high.

The reference value of homocysteine in normal people is 5-15μmol/L, and the above test results obviously exceed the normal range. If the patient does not actively seek professional help from a regular hospital, it may stimulate abnormal proliferation of smooth muscle in the blood vessels and cause vascular stenosis. With the passage of time, it will even block local blood vessels, resulting in insufficient blood supply to some tissues, ischemic necrosis may occur, cerebral infarction, acute myocardial infarction and other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
