0s Thank you for coming back to see me, Mr Sinclair.
3s I have your blood test results back now.
6s The cholesterol test?
7s That’s right.
8s I’m afraid your cholesterol level is quite a bit higher than it should be.
13s I thought it might be.
14s I’ve also got these yellowish lumps near the corner of my eye.
19s My wife thinks they have something to do with cholesterol.
22s Should I be worried?
23s The lumps are called xanthelasmas.
27s Your wife is correct that they are deposits of cholesterol.
30s I see.
32s Should I be worried about them?
33s Well, they are a little concerning if we look at you whole health picture.
37s As I said, your cholesterol levels are higher than is healthy.
42s When I did your initial assessment last week, you mentioned that some members of your family have cardiac problems.
48s Yes, they do.
50s My father had heart disease and died when he was quite young.
55s My elder sister has had high blood pressure for several years.
59s She has to take medication every day.
1:02 And you also have hypertension yourself.
1:05 According to your notes, you take some blood pressure medication.
1:08 Yes, I have been taking a tablet to lower my blood pressure for over a year.
1:13 I’m a bit confused about my cholesterol levels because I would say that my diet is quite healthy.
1:21 I don’t eat much fatty food at all.
1:23 And, what about exercise?
1:25 I am quite active really.
1:28 I use the gym three times a week and try to go for a long walk a couple of times a week.
1:33 Apart from high blood pressure, I didn’t think I had any health problems at all.
1:38 I imagine that you must be confused by all of this.
1:42 I would like you to have some additional tests as I believe you may have familial hypercholesterolaemia.
1:48 This just means having high cholesterol levels which are hereditary or present from birth.
1:53 Is it different from normal high cholesterol levels?
1:59 People with the condition have higher cholesterol levels much earlier than those who develop them as they age.
2:05 This increases their risk of heart disease at a younger age.
2:08 The risk is significantly high if the condition is untreated.
2:12 That doesn’t sound very good.
2:15 The important thing is to be aware of the condition so it can be treated.
2:19 There are a lot of things which can be done to help.
2:23 Having a healthy lifestyle is important.
2:25 Fortunately, I already follow a low-fat diet and exercise frequently.
2:30 It doesn’t seem to be enough.
2:32 You may also need to take a type of medication called a statin to lower your cholesterol levels.
2:38 OK.
2:39 Is there anything else I should do?
2:40 Just one more thing.
2:41 You should avoid smoking.
2:43 I don’t smoke any more.
2:45 To be honest, it just became too expensive.
2:48 Also, my wife kept nagging me so I finally gave up.
2:53 That's good. Right, the next thing is
2:54 I’m going to do is to refer you for some genetic testing and we should also discuss some cholesterol-lowering medication.
3:02 Thanks.
3:03 It’s a relief to get this sorted.
3:05 I’ve been very anxious about it.
