Frequently Asked Question (FAQs)
No. The angiography procedure is not painful. Only a small amount of local anesthesia is used at the wrist or groin, so you may feel slight pressure but no discomfort. Most patients describe it as a quick and comfortable heart test.
High cholesterol can be effectively controlled, but long-term management is essential. With proper diet, regular activity, and medication when needed, most patients achieve normal levels and significantly lower the risk of heart disease.
Yes. Chronic stress raises cortisol levels, which can increase LDL (bad cholesterol) and triglycerides. Stress can also lead to unhealthy eating and reduced exercise, worsening lipid levels over time. Managing stress is an essential part of cholesterol control.
Absolutely. Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) slows down metabolism and can significantly raise LDL and triglycerides. Treating thyroid imbalance often improves cholesterol levels as well.
Yes. Excessive alcohol consumption raises triglycerides and contributes to fatty liver disease. Moderate or no alcohol is recommended for healthy lipid levels.
