View allI'm really worried about my husband. His total cholesterol is at 290 and his hemoglobin is around 17.3. Could you tell me if it's okay for him to take cholesterol-lowering meds along with ecoaspirin? Also, what can we do to lower his overall cholesterol since his HDL is only 32?
For high total cholesterol, it is advisable to start cholesterol-lowering medication. I recommend starting him on a statin medication such as Lipitor (Atorvastatin) at a dose of 20mg daily. In addition, he can take Ecospirin (Aspirin) for its antiplatelet effects. However, please consult with a doctor before starting any new medication. To help reduce his total cholesterol, it is important to also focus on lifestyle changes. Encourage him to follow a healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, engage in regular physical activity, and maintain a healthy weight. Increasing his intake of foods high in omega-3 fatty acids like fish, nuts, and seeds can also help improve his HDL levels.

Is Apple good for heart?
They're high in soluble fiber, which helps lower cholesterol. They also have polyphenols, which are linked to lower blood pressure and stroke risk.

My mother-in-law had a stent procedure about 10 days ago, and she's been experiencing fever and chills on and off. Is this something to be concerned about?
Fever and chills after a stent procedure could be a sign of infection. It is important to monitor her closely and contact her healthcare provider immediately. She may need antibiotics such as Amoxicillin 500mg to treat the infection. The dosage would typically be 500mg three times a day for 7-10 days.
