I've been having this really hard time breathing and there's this weird feeling in my chest where my heart is. Sometimes, it feels like I'm about to take my last breath, and it's really scary. I have no clue what's causing all this. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

View allI recently did my routine test, and I'm quite worried about my lipid profile, especially the triglycerides, which don't look great. Should I consider getting more tests done, or is it time to start medication? My total cholesterol level is at 177 mg, triglycerides are 327 mg, HDL cholesterol is 37 mg, non-HDL cholesterol reads 140 mg, and LDL cholesterol is 108 mg with an atherosclerosis index of 5. I'd really appreciate some detailed advice on what steps I should take next.
Based on your lipid profile results, your triglyceride levels are high at 327mgdL. To help lower your triglyceride levels, you can start taking Omega-3 fatty acids supplements such as Lovaza 1-4 grams per day. Additionally, you can consider starting a statin medication like Lipitor (Atorvastatin) at a dose of 10-80 mg per day to help lower your LDL cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of atherosclerosis. It is important to also focus on lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, regular exercise, and weight management. Regular monitoring of your lipid profile will be necessary to track your progress.

My dad got his first Covaxin dose today and he stopped taking Ecosprin AV 75 two days ago. I'm wondering if it's okay for him to start taking it again now or if he should wait a couple more days.
"Dear SirMam, your father can continue taking Ecosprin AV 75 along with Covaxin. There is no need to stop it for 2-3 more days. The combination is safe and can be continued as prescribed. The usual dosage for Ecosprin AV 75 is one tablet once daily."

I've just turned 17, and I'm trying to understand my lvef count, which is at 75. Is this something normal for someone my age? Any insights you could share would be really helpful because I'm a bit concerned.
An ejection fraction (EF) of 75% is considered normal and indicates good heart function. There is no need to worry about this result. Just continue to maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet.
