I'm really worried about a situation I'm facing right now. Lately, I've noticed that he can't even make it to 1015 steps without getting super out of breath. But oddly enough, he's able to sleep comfortably. Should I be concerned about this imbalance, and is there something specific I should be looking into or doing for him?

View allWhat are the signs of a silent heart attack for someone my age? I'm a young guy and just trying to understand what I should look out for.
A silent heart attack, also known as a silent myocardial infarction, can occur without the classic symptoms of chest pain. For young males, signs may include unexplained fatigue, shortness of breath, discomfort in the upper back or jaw, nausea, sweating, or lightheadedness. These symptoms can be subtle and often mistaken for less serious conditions. It's crucial to be aware of these signs, especially if you have risk factors such as a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, or obesity. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical evaluation promptly.

I'm looking over my cholesterol results and I'm trying to figure out what they mean. My total cholesterol is 198mg, triglycerides are at 236mg, HDL cholesterol is 40mg, non-HDL cholesterol is 158mg, and my LDL cholesterol is 130mg. Plus, the atherosclerosis index is 5. Does this report look alright, or is there something off? If there's a problem, should I be thinking about medication?
Based on these values, your cholesterol levels are not optimal. To improve your cholesterol levels, you can make lifestyle changes such as adopting a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking. If lifestyle changes alone are not sufficient, medication may be prescribed by a healthcare provider. In your case, considering your lipid profile, a statin medication such as Atorvastatin (Lipitor) may be recommended. The usual starting dose for Atorvastatin is 10-20mg once daily. However, the specific medication and dosage should be determined by a healthcare provider after a thorough evaluation.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been taking Telpres 40 for her blood pressure, but it's still 170100. It's been sticking around 150100 for a while now. I'm not sure what to do, could you give some advice?
Along with telpres 40 other medicines need to be added, after clinical evaluation.
