I've just got my test results and it says my triglycerides are at 186 mgdL. I'm a bit worried about whether this is within the normal range or not. Also, the report shows my LDL is 99.80. Could you help me understand what these numbers mean for my health?
based on your triglyceride level of 186 mgdl, it is considered borderline high. The normal range for triglycerides is typically less than 150 mgdl. As for your LDL level of 99.80, it is within the optimal range. To help lower your triglyceride levels, you can consider taking Atorvastatin 10mg once daily. It is important to also follow a healthy diet and lifestyle to manage your lipid levels effectively.

My cousin just got his echo report back and the doctor said everything looks normal. He didn't prescribe any medication. His BP is normal and he doesn't have any sugar issues either. Should we be worried about anything? Is there something serious we're missing? Is this totally curable?
Based on this information, there doesn't seem to be anything serious to be concerned about. It's always a good sign when test results come back normal. As there are no specific medications prescribed, it seems like there is no immediate medical treatment required. It's important to continue with regular check-ups and a healthy lifestyle to maintain good health. If any symptoms or concerns arise in the future, it's best to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
