This Podcast Will Kill You · Ep 217 The High Stakes of Cholesterol · 28 Jul 2026 podcast

And it was 231.

And so we were like, this is something more.

It's not just lifestyle.

But then the pandemic happened and there was like so much going on.

But I finally got like tested again.

And they were like, we can't put you on statin.

Unless you have a geneticist prove that this is something.

So I had to go to a geneticist and I have a fun little chart that's like, she's missing something.

That's now what I live with.

I'm on statin for the past two years.

My cholesterol is 197.

Still a little high, but...

Last July, I was taking a nap and I got like shook awake by my brother-in-law and I hear like sobbing in the background.

And I remember being told we have to go to the hospital right now.

And I checked my phone and there's a text from my mom that says your sister's heart stopped and the name of the hospital they were at.

And so we speed over there.

And when we get there, the chaplain tells us that there was nothing they could do.

She was only three weeks away from her 26th birthday.

It was kind of a huge shock and kind of be like, oh, this is real.

this is like real, real, you know?
