During my recent checkup, all my cholesterol levels came back high total cholesterol at 257, triglycerides 216, HDL 40, LDL 174, VLDL 43, and non-HDL at 217. I had gallbladder and appendicitis surgery back in 2014. Could these surgeries be linked to my high cholesterol? What could be causing this, and how can I bring these numbers down? Also, what symptoms should I watch out for that might mean things are getting worse?

I'm really worried after my mom's health check-up today. Her blood pressure was really hightwice it was 18090 and the third time was 17090. We're going to get the full health report by Wednesday, but I'm anxious. Do you think she might need to start taking medicine right away?
The symptoms you're experiencing, such as lightheadedness, spinning sensation, and vomiting, could be related to various factors. Considering your recent changes in diet and daily workouts, here are a few potential causes: *Potential Causes* 1. *Low Blood Sugar*: With your new diet, you might be experiencing hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), leading to lightheadedness and dizziness. 2. *Dehydration*: Insufficient fluid intake, especially during workouts, can cause dehydration, resulting in dizziness and lightheadedness. 3. *Electrolyte Imbalance*: Your new diet might be lacking essential electrolytes like sodium, potassium, or magnesium, which can disrupt your body's balance and cause dizziness. 4. *Inner Ear Issues*: The spinning sensation could be related to inner ear problems, such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). *Recommendations* 1. *Consult a Doctor*: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician to rule out any underlying medical conditions. 2. *Monitor Blood Sugar*: If you're experiencing low blood sugar, consider monitoring your blood sugar levels and adjusting your diet accordingly. 3. *Stay Hydrated*: Drink plenty of water throughout the day, especially during and after workouts. 4. *Balance Your Diet*: Ensure you're getting essential electrolytes and nutrients through your diet or consider supplements after consulting your doctor. 5. *Rest and Recovery*: Allow your body time to recover between workouts, and prioritize getting enough sleep.
