Question

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?

Question

I recently got a TMT and got the results which have left me a bit confused and concerned. The report mentions that my resting ECG is normal, and my functional capacity and heart rate response during exercise are both listed as 'appropriate'. My blood pressure response seemed to be okay too, as it says 'normal resting BP' and 'appropriate response'. I didnt experience any chest pain or arrhythmia, and there were no ST changes. However, the overall impression is marked as a 'normal stress test' but concludes with 'positive for reversible ischemia'. Should I be worried about this reversible ischemia part? What does it mean, and what should my next steps be?

Question

I'm really concerned about my symptoms. I've been experiencing some trouble with breathing, and my pulse rate is quite low at 56. On top of that, my limbs are going numb pretty often, especially when I wake up. It's starting to worry me a bit. What could be causing all of this, and what should I do about it?
