FH: Understanding, Testing, and Managing Familial Hypercholesterolemia
"Genetics loads the gun, but lifestyle pulls the trigger." This one hits home. FH runs in my family; I’ve watched my mother, uncles, and cousins manage it, and I’ll never forget my uncle’s heart attack at 42.
FH isn’t just high cholesterol from diet, it’s genetic. While statins were once the only option, newer treatments like PCSK9 inhibitors, ezetimibe, and bempedoic acid offer more ways to manage risk.
For families like mine, understanding FH and the latest treatments is key to protecting future heart health.
