    Dyslipidemia

    Dyslipidemia is a condition of unhealthy levels of one or more kind of lipid (fat) in blood. Blood contains three main types of lipid: high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglycerides (TG).

    In dyslipidemia, it usually means LDL levels or TG are too high or HDL levels are too low.

    Overtime, dyslipidemia causes atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, heart attacks & strokes.

    Symptoms

    Unless it is severe, most people with dyslipidemia are unaware that they have it. Common symptoms include:

    • leg pain, especially when walking or standing
    • chest pain
    • tightness or pressure in the chest and shortness of breath
    • pain, tightness, and pressure in the neck, jaw, shoulders, and back
    • indigestion and heartburn
    • sleep problems and daytime exhaustion
    • dizziness
    • heart palpitations
    • cold sweats
    • vomiting and nausea
    • swelling in the legs, ankles, feet, stomach, and veins of the neck
    • fainting

    Etiology

    • Primary dyslipidemia is due to genetic factors
    • Secondary dyslipidemia occurs due to:
    • metabolic syndrome
    • excessive consumption of fats, especially saturated and trans fats
    • Cushing’s syndrome
    • inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBS
    • severe infections, such as HIV
    • an abdominal aortic aneurysm
