I'm dealing with depression and recently had some heart tests done - my TMT came back negative, and both my ECG and echo were normal. However, my doctor prescribed me macsart 40 for blood pressure. I'm confused and a bit worried. Why would they prescribe BP medicine if my tests are normal? Any advice would be appreciated.

View allI've got triglycerides at 290, and I'm currently on Rosave F 10 every day. Any idea how long it might take to get down to normal levels?
The medication you are taking, Rosave F 10, contains Rosuvastatin 10mg. It is commonly used to lower cholesterol levels, including triglycerides. On average, it may take several weeks to a few months to see a significant decrease in triglyceride levels. However, individual responses to medication can vary. It is important to continue taking the medication as prescribed by your healthcare provider and monitor your triglyceride levels regularly.

I'm dealing with anxiety from last year, and recently I found out I have high blood pressure. The doctor ran an ECG and said I have left ventricular hypertrophy. I'm on medication for hypertension now. Should I be worried about this left ventricular hypertrophy? I'd love some guidance on this.
"Left ventricular hypertrophy is a serious condition as it indicates that the muscle of the heart's main pumping chamber has thickened. It can be caused by conditions like hypertension. It is important to manage both your anxiety and hypertension to prevent further complications. In addition to your hypertension medication, your doctor may prescribe medications like beta-blockers or ACE inhibitors to help manage left ventricular hypertrophy. Regular monitoring and follow-up with your doctor are crucial in managing this condition."
