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 allI'm a 29-year-old software engineer, and I've been feeling a bit worried about my TMT test results. I'm 5.6 inches tall and weigh 76kg, and I live a normal lifestyle without any addictions. Despite other cardiac tests like X-ray, 2D Echo, and Lipid Profile coming back normal, my TMT tests have been consistently showing a "Mildly Positive" remark. This has happened three times over the past year. Should I be concerned about these TMT results, or is it something I can keep an eye on without stressing too much?

I'm 29 years old and I've been dealing with chest pain for the past week. My blood pressure is under control now, but the initial ECG was abnormal. We did a 2D echo and that came back normal. I've been prescribed medications like Nico Star, Angiplan 2.5, and Plevix. I feel like I'm too young for this kind of medication. Could you guide me on what I should do next?
It sounds like you are experiencing chest pain and have been prescribed medications for it. The medications you mentioned are: - Nico Star (Nicorandil) 2.5mg: This medication helps to widen the blood vessels and improve blood flow to the heart. The usual dose is 2.5mg twice daily. - Angiplan (Amlodipine) : This medication is used to treat high blood pressure and chest pain (angina). The usual dose is 5mg once daily. - Plavix (Clopidogrel): This medication helps to prevent blood clots. The usual dose is 75mg once daily. It is important to follow your doctor's advice and continue taking the medications as prescribed. These medications are commonly used to manage chest pain and other heart conditions, regardless of age. If you have any concerns about the medications or their side effects, please discuss them with your healthcare provider.

I'm experiencing this weird chest and left arm discomfort whenever I hear music with strong vibrations. It's been happening a lot lately, and I'm also feeling short of breath with some chest pain. I've had tests on my heart and lungs, and everything came back normal. What could be causing this?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of angina, which is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle. Since your heart and lung tests are normal, it's important to manage your symptoms. I recommend taking a low dose of aspirin (75-100mg) daily to help prevent blood clots and improve blood flow. Additionally, you can try using nitroglycerin sublingual tablets as needed for chest pain relief. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
