What is dyslipidemia?

"Dyslipidemia" refers to any of several lipid abnormalities. Lipid abnormalities can be divided into 3 categories: 1. High Cholesterol. This refers to high LDL (low-density lipoprotein). 2. Low HDL. Your "good cholesterol" (high-density lipoprotein) should not be too low. 3. High Triglycerides. Triglycerides are fat which are not cholesterol. All 3 of these abnormalities put one at increased risk of having a heart attack. Both Low HDL and High Triglycerides put one at increased risk of developing diabetes.


Where can I get treatment for my high triglyceride?

Having high triglycerides puts you at risk for developing heart disease. The treatment that is best for you depends on what caused your triglycerides to be high and how high your level is. For anyone who has a triglyceride level higher than 150 mg/dL, the first step is usually to take action to make sure your LDL - the bad cholesterol - is in the desired range. These are the other actions your doctor may take.


WBC 10.8 and MCHC 32.7 and Triglycerides 217 and Cholesterol 189.8 and Vitamin B12 152. What does all this mean?

The first is a White Blood Cell Count and although I don't know what the range is for the one you've had, you look like you are decent on that front. A high WBC count indicates infection or inflammation, and yours is on the high end of normal. MCHC stands for Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration. It usually is meant to test for iron status and yours looks just fine. Your triglycerides are very high and your cholesterol is normal if not a bit low. It would be interesting to see what your LDL/HDL ratio is. In any case if your main symptom is from high triglycerides that probably means you are eating too much sugar and white grains. These are converted into triglycerides almost instantly and are a huge problem in the development of high blood lipid (triglyceride) levels. I recommend cutting down or eliminating sugar from your diet.


If you have a low total cholesterol a low hdl a low ldl and triglycerides high at 245 should you be on a low dose of a statin drug liptor or simvastatin to raise the HDL and lower the LDL?

NO. When everything else is low but triglycerides are high that almost certainly means that you are eating too many carbohydrates and sugars than is appropriate for your genetic makeup. Statins will not work to fix this particular problem; your first step should be to cut sugar from your diet as sugar directly raises triglyceride levels.


What are some blood test besides LDL and HDL to monitor the blood for high fat content including normal blood levels for all?

The other ones to check are the triglycerides and cholesterol. They can be tested at the same time as your lipids (your LDL/HDL) through what is called lipoprotein analysis (lipoprotein profile or lipid profile).
