I'm really worried about my husband. He's been waking up in the middle of the night sweating and struggling to breathe, and this has happened twice in just three days. We checked his blood pressure both times he woke up, and it was 148110 with a pulse of 75 the first time, and 140100 with a pulse of 85 the second time. He usually takes TeldayH every day for his high blood pressure, which generally keeps it under control. His blood sugar levels were also normal when we checked them yesterday, and his ECG was fine in January. He did have a gout attack around the same time, and his uric acid levels were 8.7 then, and he's also dealing with high cholesterol. Right now, he's on Febuxostat and Jupiros. I'm just trying to figure out why he's having these night sweats and breathing problems. Could it be related to his medication or something else?

I'm starting to get concerned about my cholesterol levels, even though my overall cholesterol is 185, which doesn't seem too bad. But my triglycerides are on the higher side, and I'm wondering if this is something to worry about. Are there any natural ways to bring those levels down, or should I be considering medication? Would love to hear your thoughts.

To help reduce triglyceride levels naturally, you can try incorporating lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet low in sugar and refined carbohydrates, increasing physical activity, and avoiding excessive alcohol consumption. Additionally, omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil supplements can also help lower triglyceride levels. If lifestyle changes are not enough to lower triglyceride levels, medication may be recommended. One common medication used to lower triglycerides is Fenofibrate. The usual dosage for Fenofibrate is 48 to 145 mg per day, as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

I've been dealing with diabetes for the past 10 years and I've also got high cholesterol. I used to take Tonact TG, which really helped me a lot, but my doctor recently switched me to Ecosprin AV 75. My TMT came back positive, but all my other heart tests, including the CT coronary, were normal. I'm wondering if I can take Tonact TG and Ecosprin 75 separately instead of just using Ecosprin AV 75? I noticed that with Tonact TG, my LDL stays around 70 mgdL and it also boosts my HDL levels more than just taking atorvastatin. Can you help me figure this out?

NO take ecospirin av as it comes in combiantion with blood thinner and you gave arisk as your tmt came out positive,no need to worry ,follow your doctors advice

I'm feeling really uncomfortable with my chest. I've got this back pain, and it feels like there's tightness there too. Initially, it was on the right side, lower down, but now I feel it on the left side, just above my stomach. It's not exactly painful, more like a feeling of tightness. I've also been having some heartburn. Should I be concerned about this, and what might it be?

take tablet pantop for 5 days
