Lipoprotein(a) is finally getting national attention. Our founder Katherine Wilemon (@KAWilemon) and Family Heart Ambassador Brian Farrington share their stories in this powerful @washingtonpost piece on this underrecognized genetic risk. #KnowLpa

This #LpaAwarenessDay we're asking you to consider giving $20 in honor of the 20% with high Lp(a).

To continue our work, we must raise funds from our community. The more donors who give and the more dollars we raise, the more we can do.

Exactly 🏆! Ethnic differences in Lp(a) level and distribution can be partly explained by differences in LPA size and single nucleotide polymorphisms within and surrounding the gene locus. Read more on this topic on our journal! #KnowLpa #LpaAwarenessDay

You are strong! #KnowLpa #FindLPa

This is what I looled like before all of the cardiac events and strokes. This is what Lp(a) looks like. I had no idea and wouldn't be diagnosed for another 7 years. #KnowLpa #FindLpa #lipoproteina #familial #genetic

There are things you can do..you should not “wait” until your heart attacks…fight back…#KnowLpa

A6: Having a high Lp(a) is a genetic condition and treatment options are limited today, but there are things you can do… #KnowLpa

#KnowLpa everyone deserves a fighting chance.

A4: If you have a family history of early heart disease or have been told that heart disease “runs in your family,” but you’ve never understood why, it’s important to know if you have high Lp(a). #KnowLpa

[Dr. Laurence Sperling, Family Heart CMO @FamilyHeartCMO]

A1: Lp(a) looks like LDL cholesterol with some key differences. LDL has a single apolipoprotein B attached to its surface. Lp(a), however, has an apolipoprotein B attached to its surface, and that apolipoprotein B has an apolipoprotein(a) attached to it. #KnowLpa

#KnowLpa #LpaAwarenessDay

🫀Those with ⤴️ Lp(a) have 2-4 X greater risk of early heart disease or stroke
🫀Elevated Lp(a) is common: occurs in 1 in 5 people!
🫀Sadly few people know their Lp(a)! Ask for this to be checked in you!

[Susan Riley @SRiley233]

@Lpa_Doc Thank you!

[Susan Riley @SRiley233]

@Lpa_Doc What if a PCSK9i increases your LP(a) too? Went up with statin and again with PCSK9i.
