View allI'm looking for some advice because my total cholesterol level is 235, and I really want to get it under 200. What can I do to lower it? Ive attached my report for more details. Can you help me out?
To lower your total cholesterol from 235 mgdL to below 200 mgdL, it's essential to adopt lifestyle changes and possibly medication. Dietary changes include reducing saturated and trans fats, increasing fiber intake from fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes, and incorporating healthy fats such as olive oil, avocados, nuts, and fatty fish. Regular exercise, aiming for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity activity per week, and maintaining a healthy weight are also important. Avoid smoking and limit alcohol intake. If lifestyle changes are insufficient, your doctor may prescribe cholesterol-lowering medications like statins. Consult your healthcare provider to create a personalized plan and discuss whether medication is necessary.

I have rheumatic heart disease with moderate to severe mitral valve regurgitation and my LV is 58 - can this be managed with medications or do I need surgery
With rheumatic heart disease, moderate to severe mitral valve regurgitation, and an LV ejection fraction of 58%, the decision to manage with medication or surgery depends on the specific symptoms and the severity of the regurgitation and LV dysfunction. While medications can help manage symptoms and prevent complications, severe cases often require surgical intervention to repair or replace the mitral valve. Your doctor will consider your individual circumstances, including the severity of your condition, your overall health, and your symptoms, to determine the best course of treatment
