A 35-year-old male presented with skin lesions on his elbows and knees. Laboratory tests showed high total cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar levels. An ECG also showed T-wave changes. Given the patient's family history of diabetes and early heart disease, further investigations of liver, kidney, thyroid, and cardiac function were recommended. The patient is at risk of complications like heart disease and pancreatitis due to secondary hyperlipidemia, which is most likely caused by an underlying condition like hypothyroidism, obesity, or medication use. Treatment would involve lifestyle changes, diabetes control, lipid-lowering medications, and consultation with cardiology.
