I'm a 25-year-old female and I've been having some chest discomfort along with feeling breathless. I'm also experiencing chills and sweating. Is this something normal, or should I be worried?

These symptoms could be indicative of a variety of conditions, including anxiety, panic attacks, asthma, or even a heart-related issue. It is important to seek medical attention for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a pain reliever like acetaminophen and try to relax in a comfortable position.

I've just gotten my cholesterol test results back, and I'm a bit concerned about what they mean. My Total Cholesterol is at 155 mgdl, Triglycerides at 193 mgdl, HDL at 29 mgdl, VLDL at 39 mgdl, LDL at 87 mgdl, with a TCholHDL ratio of 5.3 and an LDLHDL ratio of 3.0. Can you help me understand these numbers and suggest what steps I should take? I'm not sure if these levels are something to worry about, and I'd appreciate any advice on how to handle this.
Your cholesterol report shows a total cholesterol of 155 mgdL, which is normal, but triglycerides are elevated at 193 mgdL, indicating a potential risk for heart disease. Your HDL ("good cholesterol") is low at 29 mgdL, which is concerning, as higher HDL helps reduce heart disease risk. Your LDL ("bad cholesterol") is at a good level of 87 mgdL, and your VLDL and cholesterol ratios are slightly elevated due to the low HDL and high triglycerides. To improve your cholesterol profile, focus on a healthy diet rich in healthy fats (like omega-3s), fiber, and whole foods, while cutting back on sugary and processed foods. Exercise regularly, aim for weight management, avoid smoking, and limit alcohol. Its also important to discuss these results with your doctor, who may recommend further testing or medications, especially considering your history of heart attack. Regular follow-ups will be important to manage and track your progress.

I'm a 33-year-old guy, weighing 70 kg and standing at 5'10". I've noticed that my diastolic blood pressure has been consistently between 90 to 100 for the past few months. Do you think I should start taking medication for this? I'm really not sure what the best course of action is and could use some guidance.
Hello, as your diastolic blood pressure has been consistently between 90 to 100 mmHg for several months, it is recommended to start medication to help lower your blood pressure and reduce the risk of complications. You can start taking Amlodipine 5mg once daily to help lower your diastolic blood pressure. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight.
