High cholesterol won't make you feel out of breath. Anxiety will.
I don't think anyone can look at someone and know they have high cholesterol. I never heard of that .Usually the doctor has to do a test to find out if you have it or not.

If you are really worried about it. Stop eating fatting foods. Eat alot of grain products and broil your food. Don't eat out and cook at home.
Eat lots of veggies and reduce your sweets.

I went on an adkins diet one time and lost about 60 pounds and started feeling real well. I had high cholesterol then and never have had it checked again thats been about 10 years ago. Just try to think of something else.

You can control your cholesterol with diet. They can put you on meds but I think its better if you try changing your eating habits.

Trust me its just anxiety about having that.. No one can tell if their cholestero l is high or not. Whoever told you that was guessing. Most people's cholesterol is high so its not that big of a guess. I promise you sweeties that its just your anxiety. I have it everyday the very same symptoms. I spend my nights online asking things here and medical boards about the very samethings.

I would just stop worrying about that and eat right and exercise and try to keep your mind off of it. If you asked a doctor they would have to test you to tell if you have high cholesterol and to be frank having high cholesterol is highly overrated worry.

Like I said just start eating right and do the best you can. The doctors tell you to quit smoking as well, but I never did,. Im 54 and well im still here for the moment. Take care and try not to worry. It will be ok.

My wife said to tell you that you might be anemic. Low in iron. She said that she has the very same symptoms.

Also she said to tell you that her grandmother had a bad heart at 40 and she also had cholesterol and lived to be 97. She said to tell you to quit listening to people telling you such and even some doctors tell you that just to keep getting money out of you for test. She said to tell you to "Live Long and Prosper" :-) Basically don't worry be happy
