I'm a bit worried because my LDL is 145 and HDL is 50. It looks like my cholesterol levels are high. I don't really have any bad habits, don't eat a lot, and maintain a moderate weight. What's going on with my cholesterol?

View allMy cholesterol level came back at 241. Do I absolutely have to start taking medication to get it down, or is it possible to lower it just by sticking to a regular workout routine?
Regular exercise can help improve your cholesterol levels, but in some cases, medication may be necessary to bring it down to a healthy range. It's important to follow a healthy diet and exercise regimen, but if your cholesterol levels remain high, your doctor may prescribe medication. One common medication used to lower cholesterol is Atorvastatin, typically taken at a starting dose of 10-20 mg once daily.

I'm a bit concerned about my recent ECG report which showed sinus bradycardia and a slight ST elevation in leads V4, V5, and V6. Is this something to be worried about or is it considered normal?
In your ECG report, sinus bradycardia with slight ST elevation in leads V4, V5, and V6 can indicate a possible myocardial injury or ischemia. It is important to further evaluate this finding to rule out any underlying heart condition. You may need to take medications like Aspirin and Clopidogrel to prevent blood clot formation and reduce the risk of heart attack. Additionally, medications like Beta-blockers such as Metoprolol can help in controlling heart rate and blood pressure. It is advisable to follow up with a cardiologist for a more detailed assessment and management plan.
