I-cholesterol iyinkinga abantu abaningi ezweni lethu abanayo. Mhlawumbe wena, umama wakho, ubaba wakho, noma othile omaziyo unale nkinga. Abanye abantu bangayilawula ngokuthatha imithi enikezwe udokotela nokulawula ukudla kwabo. Kodwa kwabanye abantu, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi bazama kangakanani, kunzima ukunciphisa izinga le-cholesterol egazini labo. Yilapho-ke sidinga khona usizo lomuntu onolwazi olukhethekile. Namuhla sikhuluma ngochwepheshe onjalo, okungukuthi, i-Lipidologist.
Kalula nje, ubani lo dokotela we-Lipidologist?
Cabanga nje, uma sinenkinga yesikhumba, siya kudokotela wesikhumba. Uma sinesifo senhliziyo , siya kudokotela wenhliziyo. Ngokufanayo, udokotela ogxile kuma-lipid, noma amafutha egazini, ubizwa ngokuthi i-Lipidologist.
Lawa ma-lipid afaka izinto ezifana ne-cholesterol kanye nama-triglyceride esiwaziyo sonke. Nakuba lokhu kuyadingeka emzimbeni, uma sekuphezulu kakhulu, kungabangela izinkinga ezinkulu. Udokotela we-lipid wenza okungaphezu kokuhlolwa kwegazi okuvamile futhi usebenzisa ubuchwepheshe bakhe ukusiza abantu abanalezi zinkinga zama-lipid.
Kungani ulwazi ngodokotela we-lipid lubalulekile kithi?
Isizathu esiyinhloko salokhu yisifo senhliziyo kanye nezifo zenhliziyo. Sonke sizwile "nge-cholesterol embi". Ngokwezokwelapha, lokhu sikubiza ngokuthi yi -Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) .
Cabanga nje ngemithambo yethu yegazi njengamapayipi athwala amanzi. Lapho i-LDL, noma i-cholesterol embi, iba phezulu kakhulu egazini, kancane kancane yakheka ezindongeni zaleyo mithambo yegazi. Kufana nepayipi lamanzi elidala elivaleka ngokugqwala nokungcola. Lokhu kwakheka kwamafutha ngaphakathi kwemithambo yegazi, okuya kuqina, futhi okuyavala yilokho esikubiza ngokuthi i-atherosclerosis .
Uma imithambo yegazi ivaleka kanje, ingozi yezimo ezibucayi njengokuhlaselwa yinhliziyo kanye nesifo sohlangothi iyanda. Udokotela wezifo zamafutha unokuqonda okujulile kwe-cholesterol ye-LDL kanye namanye amafutha. Ngakho-ke, angahlola ngokunembile ingozi yakho futhi akunike uhlelo lokwelapha olungcono kakhulu lokunciphisa ingozi.
Yiziphi izimo zezokwelapha eziyinhloko ezelashwa yi-lipidologist?
Udokotela wezifo zamafutha welapha kakhulu izifo ezihlobene namafutha. Ngezansi ezinye zazo. Lawa magama angase azwakale eyinkimbinkimbi kancane, kodwa ake sibheke ukuthi asho ukuthini ngamagama alula.
| Igama Lesimo (Igama Lezokwelapha) | Kalula nje... |
|---|---|
| I-Hyperlipidemia | Ukwanda kwenani eliphelele lamafutha (njenge-cholesterol) egazini (ngokuvamile sikubiza ngokuthi "i-cholesterol ephezulu"). |
| I-Hypercholesterolemia | Ikakhulukazi inani le-LDL, okusho ukuthi "i-cholesterol embi", liyanda kakhulu. |
| I-Hypolipidemia | Amazinga aphansi kunejwayelekile e-cholesterol egazini (lokhu kungaba yinkinga ngezinye izikhathi). |
| I-Hypercholesterolemia Yomndeni | I-cholesterol ephezulu iyisimo esizuzwa njengefa, okusho ukuthi ivela ezizakhini zofuzo. Lokhu kungaba yingozi kakhulu. |
| I-Hypertriglyceridemia | Ukwanda kolunye uhlobo lwamafutha olubizwa ngokuthi ama-triglycerides egazini. |
Ubani ofuna ukuba ngowokuqala ukuthola i-cholesterol?
Akudingeki ukuthi ubonane nodokotela we-Lipidologist ngokushesha uma uthola ukuthi une-cholesterol ephezulu. Kufanele uqale ukhulume nodokotela womndeni wakho (uMhlinzeki Wokunakekelwa Okuyinhloko - PCP) . Uzokweluleka ngemithi eyisisekelo kanye nezinguquko zendlela yokuphila (ukudla, ukuzivocavoca) okudingayo.
Kodwa-ke, uma lezo zindlela zokwelapha zingalawuli amazinga akho e-cholesterol njengoba kulindelekile, noma uma usola ukuthi unesifo se-cholesterol esizuzwe njengefa, khona-ke kufanele ucele ukuqondiswa ukuze ubone udokotela we-Lipidologist.
Abantu abaningi bacabanga ukuthi i-Lipidologist ingudokotela wenhliziyo. Kodwa lokho akunjalo ngempela. Odokotela emikhakheni efana ne-Family Medicine noma i-Internal Medicine nabo bangaba nokuqeqeshwa okukhethekile kule ndawo ye-lipidology. Ngakho-ke ungabuza udokotela wakho ngakho.
Kwenzekani uma uya kudokotela we-lipidologist?
Uma uya kudokotela we-Lipidologist, uzokuhlola kahle kakhulu.
1. Ukuhlolwa kwegazi: Okokuqala, kuthathwa isampula yegazi kuwe bese kwenziwa iphaneli ekhethekile yamafutha . Lokhu kungaqapha ngokunembile amazinga akho e-LDL, i-HDL (i-cholesterol enhle), kanye ne-triglyceride.
2. Umlando womndeni: Lokhu kubaluleke kakhulu . Uzobuza nakanjani ukuthi umama wakho, ubaba, izingane zakini, noma izihlobo zakho eziseduze bake baba nezinkinga ze-cholesterol, ukuhlaselwa yinhliziyo, noma isifo sohlangothi besebancane. Ngoba lokhu kungaba yizakhi zofuzo.
3. Ukuhlolwa komzimba: Umzimba wakho uzohlolwa.
4. Ukubuza ngendlela yokuphila: Uzobuza nangezinto ezifana nokuthi uyabhema yini, uyavocavoca umzimba, nokuthi injani imikhuba yakho yokudla.
Esebenzisa lonke lolu lwazi, udokotela we-Lipidologist uzokwakha uhlelo lokwelashwa olufanela wena. Lokhu kungafaka phakathi imithi kanye nezinguquko zendlela yokuphila. Kwezinye izimo ezinzima kakhulu, bangase batuse ngisho nokwelashwa okukhethekile njenge- lipoprotein apheresis . Lokhu kuhilela ukuthumela igazi lakho ngomshini, ukususa i-cholesterol embi (LDL) kuyo, nokubuyisela igazi elihlanziwe emzimbeni wakho.
Uma usuqalile ukwelashwa, uzoqashwa njalo. Ukuhlolwa kwegazi kuzokwenziwa ngezikhathi ezithile ukuze kutholakale ukuthi ukwelashwa kuyasebenza noma kudingeka kwenziwe izinguquko.
Uma unenkinga yokulawula i-cholesterol yakho, ungabi namahloni noma wesabe. Abanye abantu badinga okungaphezu nje kokwelashwa okuvamile. Kuwukuhlakanipha ukufuna usizo kuchwepheshe.
Umlayezo Wokuya Nawe Ekhaya
- Isazi se-lipidologist udokotela ogxile ezifweni ezihlobene namafutha egazini, ikakhulukazi i-cholesterol.
- Uma amazinga akho e-cholesterol kunzima ukuwalawula ngokwelashwa okujwayelekile, noma uma usola ukuthi unesifo se-cholesterol esizuzwe njengefa, kubalulekile ukufuna iseluleko kudokotela we-Lipidologist.
- Uzocabangela konke kusukela ekuhlolweni kwegazi lakho, umlando wezokwelapha womndeni, kanye nendlela yokuphila ukuze adale uhlelo lokwelashwa olufanele wena.
- Okokuqala, khuluma nodokotela womndeni wakho (PCP). Uma kudingeka, uzokudlulisela kudokotela we-Lipidologist.
