Hyperlipidemia: Your serum lipids are very abnormal and require dietary and most likely medication for treatment. If untreated you are predisposed to cardiovascular complications. Very high triglycerides predispose to pancreatitis. Your physician and/ or rheumatologist will refer you to a dietitian and advise you on medications, avoidance of alcohol and the follow-up needed.
