Talk to General Physician on Lipids

Asking for Self, Male, 23 years old, Karachi

Hi Mam these were the result of full lipids at that time. But my question is. Is there any mistake in these numbers? Because my HDL was 37, LDL was 113 and Triglycerides were 198. Now the question is cholesterol is what I have read on internet Cholesterol = HDL(37) + LDL(113) + Triglycerides(198/5) = 190. But in my report it is written as 239. So it an error.
