I'm experiencing heart palpitations for the past nine months and have been feeling uneasiness on the left side of my rib cage for the last 34 days. Almost every day, I get this sudden, strong or late heartbeat sensation that really stuns me when it happens. It's making me quite uncomfortable. What might be causing this?

I'm 32 and just found out my triglycerides are at 360. Should I be taking meds to bring it down, or is there a natural way to manage this? Really need some guidance here.

For your triglyceride level of 360, it is recommended to make lifestyle changes first to try and lower it naturally. This includes maintaining a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, regular exercise, and avoiding alcohol and smoking. However, if these measures are not enough to lower your triglycerides, medication may be necessary. You can consider using Atorvastatin 10mg once daily to help lower your triglyceride levels. Remember to consult with your doctor before starting any medication.
