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've been feeling my heartbeat in my stomach lately and it's really starting to worry me. Do you have any advice on what might be causing this?

This sensation is known as pulsatile tinnitus and can be caused by various factors such as increased blood flow near the abdomen. I recommend you to consult with a doctor for further evaluation. You can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) for any discomfort.

I've been dealing with high cholesterol and triglyceride levels for about three years now, and I've been keeping track of them regularly. I'm really concerned and would like some advice on medications that might help manage these levels. What would you suggest?

Hi, for high cholesterol and triglyceride levels, you can consider taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a starting dose of 10-20 mg once daily. Additionally, Fenofibrate (brand name Tricor) can be added at a dose of 145 mg once daily to help lower triglyceride levels. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your levels and adjust the dosage if needed.
