Michelle had high cholesterol her entire life, but didn't know it was familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and passed down from her dad. Then, she had pain in her chest and ended up with two stents for two "totally occluded arteries."
Thanks to the FH Foundation Michelle now knows that she FH. FH is the most common inherited condition that causes early heart disease. FH leads to very high cholesterol and left untreated, leaves individuals at a 20 times higher risk for heart disease.
FH is passed down through families. Every child of someone with FH has a 50% of inheriting the condition. Which is why Michelle is having her family screened for high cholesterol and FH.
