Hi my partner has been experiencing as lot of chest pain / dizziness & headaches.
He thought it might be due to stress, however his blood pressure has turned out to be high. Had blood tests done ….
Phone call today regarding the blood tests . They said someone is wrong with his Lipids levels ? Will find out more tomorrow . Any ideas on what it could be ? Could it be linked to diabetes ?

Lipid is cholesterol so I’m guessing his may be high?

Weirdly enough, my diabetic son got referred to a lipid clinic due to low cholesterol... They tested the whole family to make sure it wasn't some rare genetic disease, then sent us all on our way.
I think there are various versions of "normal" that don't necessarily tick the right boxes, so bear that in mind.
Hopefully they'll get to the bottom of what's bothering your partner's health.
