Wrong again, o undereducated one of the multiple personalities.

What is the causal relationship between hepatic disease & cardiac disease? What about renal disease & cardiac disease?

BTW, it's "Like", not "liek". "of", not "fo".

High cholesterol level puts you at an increased risk of heart problems. It's very easily managed by either diet or medications. High cholesterol can cause clogging of the arteries of the heart and can cause a heart attack and sudden death. Routine bloodwork, which I'm sure would be done if cholesterol levels are obtained, can show abnormalities in liver and kidney function. If there are abnormalities in these routine blood tests, that's the time more tests will be done to investigate possible liver and kidney problems.
