I would appreciate it if any doctor out there could explain to me why I developed such a symptom: I woke up one morning, had breakfast consisting of a strong coffee and a piece of very sweet and fatty dessert, became very dizzy and had a stomach upset. The next day, I had a blood test and found an alarming level of LDL at 185 and total Cholesterol of 240 (HDL and Triglycerine in normal range). My fasting blood sugar reading was normal at 94 and blood pressure also in normal range of 122/80.I am 48 year old male with ideal weight for my height (176 cm/75 kg). Was the symptom indicative of or a warning sign for a possible stroke or was it merely a case of caffeine overdose?

Only one day food and habit will not cause stroke or blood pressure or sugar or cholesterol. But as you have ask the symptoms of stroke so that is nausea, vomiting, headache, loss of balance and coordination, as well movement disability. Some times also associated with speech problem and confusion in understanding the things. In your case it's not a symptom of stroke but just a gastritis and you need to control your diet to control your cholesterol. Talk to your doctor if it does not come in control. And have check on cholesterol every 3month once. Hope this was helpful for you. Take care
