I'm a 28-year-old male and I've noticed that for the past 6 months, my resting heart rate has consistently been over 100, sometimes getting up to 120. I'm really wondering if this is something normal or if I should be concerned about it. Is this something I need to get checked out?

I'm really worried about the low blood pressure issue. Even though we're trying everything like ORS, his blood pressure just stays low. It's been causing him a lot of problems like feeling weak and dizzy, and I'm not sure what else we can do since it's not getting better. Are there any medications that could fix this problem for good, so he can stop feeling so awful?

I'm a bit worried about my cholesterol and triglyceride levels. They've been at 219 and 342 respectively, for the last 6 months. I don't have any other medical issues. Do you think I need to start taking medication for this? I'm really unsure and would appreciate your advice.

Your cholesterol level of 219 and triglyceride level of 342 are elevated, indicating a risk for cardiovascular disease. In this case, medication may be necessary to help lower your cholesterol and triglyceride levels to reduce the risk of heart disease. I recommend starting on a statin medication such as Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 20mg daily to help lower your cholesterol levels. Additionally, you can consider adding Fenofibrate (brand name Tricor) at a dosage of 145mg daily to specifically target your triglyceride levels. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed.
