I'm having this pain or pressure in my chest, and sometimes my heart starts beating really fast. The pain goes from the middle of my chest up to my upper throat. What could be going on?

What if my heart rate is naturally between 90 and 110? I haven't had any problems so far, but I'm just wondering if there's any reason to be worried.

A resting heart rate between 60 to 100 beats per minute is considered normal for adults. A heart rate of 90 to 110 beats per minute can be normal for some individuals, especially if you are physically active or under stress. However, if you are experiencing no symptoms and have no underlying health conditions, this heart rate range may not be a cause for concern. It is always best to consult with your healthcare provider for a personalized assessment.

I'm really worried about my cholesterol levels. My total cholesterol is now 273 and my LDL cholesterol is at 191, which has gone up from 180. My TcholHDL ratio has also increased to 6.5, and it used to be lower. The LDLHDL ratio is now 4.5, and it was around 2.5 before. My non-HDL cholesterol is 230.92. With all these numbers going up, am I at risk? What should I do to bring everything back to normal? Also, my triglycerides have improved a bit, now at 182 from 305, but I'm still concerned. Would appreciate some guidance.

Your cholesterol levels indicate that you are at an increased risk for cardiovascular diseases. To help lower your cholesterol levels and reduce your risk, you can make lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight. Additionally, medication may be prescribed by your doctor to help manage your cholesterol levels. For your high LDL cholesterol, you can consider taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage recommended by your healthcare provider. This medication helps lower LDL cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. To improve your cholesterol ratios and overall lipid profile, you can also discuss with your doctor about taking Fenofibrate (brand name Tricor) at a suitable dosage. Fenofibrate helps lower triglycerides and non-HDL cholesterol levels, which can further reduce your cardiovascular risk. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice and monitoring of your cholesterol levels.
