I'm 24 and I spend a lot of time sitting because of my job. My pulse rate seems to bounce between 92 and 110. Is it normal for it to be that high at my age? I'm a bit worried if it's something I should be concerned about.

View allI'm really worried after finding out from my CT coronary angiography that I have soft plaque in the proximal LAD causing moderate narrowing, and there's bridging in the mid LAD. Thankfully, my heart scan and 2D echo are normal. But now I'm kind of stressed about what precautions I should be taking and what medicines might help. I just feel unsure about the next steps and would love some guidance. What should I do to manage this situation?
Its understandable to feel concerned, but with your CT angiography showing mild narrowing (60%) and normal 2D echo, it suggests your heart function is still intact. For now, focus on lifestyle changes such as a heart-healthy diet, regular exercise, stress management, and medications like aspirin or statins as prescribed by your doctor to prevent further plaque buildup. Stay in close contact with your cardiologist for regular check-ups and guidance.

I'm on Crestor 40mg and Ezetrol 10mg for my cholesterol, and here's what my latest results show: Total Cholesterol is 4.25, LDL is 2.5, HDL is 0.93, and Triglyceride is 1.82, all in mmol unit. Lately, I've been feeling really fatigued and I suspect it might be muscle pain or tiredness from the statins. I've lost some focus too. I'm thinking of reducing my statin dosage. Could you give me some advice on what to do about this?
Based on your symptoms of fatigue, muscle pain, tiredness, and difficulty focusing, it is important to discuss with your healthcare provider about potentially reducing your statin medication. It is possible that these symptoms could be related to the statins you are taking. One option to consider is switching to a different statin medication such as Atorvastatin 20mg once daily. Atorvastatin is another type of statin that may have a different side effect profile for you. However, it is crucial to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen.

My brother's been taking Olmezest H20 for his blood pressure, but sometimes it still shows high readings. The doctor recommended adding Amlodipine 5 mg to his routine. I'm wondering if that's a good idea or if switching to Olmezest H40 might be better. What do you think?
use amlodipine 5 mg
