Question 1

I'm Manoj and I'm 30 years old. I've been taking Rozavel F because I was diagnosed with high cholesterol. My LDL is 147, HDL is 32, and triglycerides are 240. I recently had an ECG, and the results showed a borderline ECG and an anteroseptal T wave abnormality that's non-specific. Should I be concerned about these findings? What steps should I take next?

Question 2

I'm a bit concerned about my hs-CRP levels because they came back at 1 mgL. Is that considered high for my age? I'm wondering how I can lower it. Also, I noticed my CRP level is only 0.13 mgdL, which seems good. How often should I be checking these, ...

Accepted Answer

"Hs-CRP level of 1 mgl is considered to be low risk for cardiovascular disease. To reduce it further, you can consider incorporating lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, healthy diet, and stress management. In some cases, medications like Atorvastatin 10mg daily can also help lower hs-CRP levels. For your CRP level of 0.13 mgdl, it is within the normal range. To maintain this level, continue with a healthy lifestyle. As for how often to repeat these tests along with lipid profile, it is generally recommended to repeat them annually for routine monitoring, unless your doctor advises otherwise based on your individual health status."

Question 3

I'm feeling pretty nervous lately, and I'm not sure why. About a week ago, I went to a gastro specialist because I was really bloated. I noticed the bloating happens whenever I have dairy products, which is still an issue now. I've attached my blood ...

Accepted Answer

From your blood test results showing high LDL and NON HDL levels, along with your symptoms of bloating and nervousness, it is important to address your cholesterol levels and digestive issues. To lower your LDL and NON HDL levels, I recommend starting a medication called Atorvastatin. Additionally, since you are experiencing bloating with dairy products, you can try taking a lactase enzyme supplement like Lactaid before consuming dairy to help with digestion. It is also advisable to follow a low-cholesterol diet and engage in regular physical activity to improve your overall health. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring of your cholesterol levels.

Question 4

I'm having some issues with chest pain on my left side, and it's been going on for the last couple of months. The pain comes and goes and often extends from my upper chest to my left arm. I've also experienced some pulling in my left leg and occasion...

Accepted Answer

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. The pain in your upper chest that extends from your shoulder to your left arm, along with left hand pain and abdominal pain, could be related to this. The normal ECG results and an LVEF of 55% from the echo are positive findings. Since you have already undergone a TMT (Treadmill Test), it is good for assessing how your heart responds to exertion. If the TMT results are inconclusive or if your symptoms persist, you may consider getting a coronary angiography to visualize any blockages in the coronary arteries. This test can help determine if there is any significant blockage that may be causing your symptoms. In the meantime, it is important to manage your symptoms. You can take medications like Aspirin to help reduce the risk of blood clots, and medications like Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels. Additionally, Nitroglycerin can help relieve chest pain during episodes of angina. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Question 5

I'm a bit concerned about my blood pressure reading, which is 140103. Is it normal, or should I be worried? Can it be improved with lifestyle changes? Would love some advice.

Accepted Answer

A blood pressure reading of 140103 is considered high and warrants attention; while lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, a balanced diet, stress reduction, and adequate sleep can help lower blood pressure

Question 6

I'm dealing with a lot of hyper acidity, and I've noticed I occasionally get palpitations. All my tests like blood work, ECG, and Echo are normal, but these palpitations have me worried. Is it possible that my acid reflux is causing these palpitations?
