Homocysteine 20.10μmol/L is generally considered as high index.
Homocysteine is an item of blood test, and the normal range is 5-15μmol/L. Homocysteine 20.10μmol/L has exceeded this range, so it is considered high index, which may be caused by H-type hypertension, hypothyroidism, coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, cerebral infarction, etc. In addition, if you eat before the test, especially foods with high cholesterol content, it will cause detection errors and lead to increased index.
The subject needs to further do blood pressure measurement, thyroid function test, cardiac ultrasound, coronary angiography, cerebral CTA, etc. to confirm the diagnosis.
