No, if your total cholesterol is less than 200 mg/dL, you generally do not need to worry too much about an increased risk of heart disease based on that cholesterol level alone. Here's a more detailed explanation:

However, other factors also influence your overall heart disease risk, such as:
- Your HDL (good) cholesterol level
- Your blood pressure
- Whether you smoke
- Your family history of heart disease
- Your age and gender

My wife has been suffering heart valves problem and now she suffering overiyan cyst too. I want to know will she able to overy cyst operation?

Did your wife undergo heart valve surgery yet? Ovarian cyst removal is done laparoscopically and so is not meant to have much load on the heart. The ejection fraction of the heart is the function that is more importantly looked at before any operative procedure is advised/planned.
