Hello and welcome to HCM!
I do appreciate your concern regarding to your mother's health.
The high cholesterol level may be due to under active thyroid. So it is recommended to normalize the TSH level and than recheck the cholesterol.
I would suggest to see a general physician for a general check up and than he will address you at the right specialist.
For a personalised comprehensive evaluation, treatment recommendations, or individual therapy, ask me at HealthCareMagic at this private link:
