I've been tracking my health stats lately, and my SGPT level has been at 73, SHOT level at 37, and my cholesterol is reading 211 for the past week. I'm really hoping to get these numbers to a normal range in the next 4 to 5 days. Can you give me some advice on how to make that happen?

-It's important to take a gradual approach to improving SGPT, SGOT, and cholesterol levels. In 4-5 days, it may not be realistic to achieve significant changes, but you can focus on a healthy diet, staying hydrated, avoiding alcohol, and exercising regula

View allI'm concerned about my heart rateit's usually over 100, and I get palpitations a lot. When I'm just lying in bed, my heart rate gets between 110-120, and even just climbing up one flight of stairs sends it up to 160. My thyroid levels are normal, though I do have a thyroid nodule. My haemoglobin is at 9, and my BMI is normal. I also have spondyloarthropathy and hidradenitis suppurativa, so my CRP and ESR levels are high. I've attached an ECG from my Apple Watch that I took during the palpitations. Is such a high heart rate normal?
Based on your symptoms and medical history, it seems like you may be experiencing tachycardia, which is an abnormally high heart rate. Given your palpitations, breathlessness, and elevated heart rate even with minimal exertion, it is important to further evaluate the underlying cause. Considering your conditions and symptoms, I recommend you consult a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, to help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking **Metoprolol** at a starting dose of 25mg once daily. This medication can help lower your heart rate and reduce palpitations. It is crucial to monitor your heart rate regularly and keep a record to share with your healthcare provider for a more accurate assessment and management plan.

I'm really concerned about my mom. She's been advised to take rosuless 20 mg twice a day, and I'm just wondering if that's actually safe or advisable. Like, should I be worried about any possible side effects? Any guidance would be really appreciated.
Rosuless 20 mg is a brand name for Rosuvastatin, which is commonly used to lower cholesterol levels. Taking it twice a day as prescribed by your doctor is advisable for better control of cholesterol levels. Make sure to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.

I've just gotten my cholesterol test results back, and I'm a bit concerned about what they mean. My Total Cholesterol is at 155 mgdl, Triglycerides at 193 mgdl, HDL at 29 mgdl, VLDL at 39 mgdl, LDL at 87 mgdl, with a TCholHDL ratio of 5.3 and an LDLHDL ratio of 3.0. Can you help me understand these numbers and suggest what steps I should take? I'm not sure if these levels are something to worry about, and I'd appreciate any advice on how to handle this.
Your cholesterol report shows a total cholesterol of 155 mgdL, which is normal, but triglycerides are elevated at 193 mgdL, indicating a potential risk for heart disease. Your HDL ("good cholesterol") is low at 29 mgdL, which is concerning, as higher HDL helps reduce heart disease risk. Your LDL ("bad cholesterol") is at a good level of 87 mgdL, and your VLDL and cholesterol ratios are slightly elevated due to the low HDL and high triglycerides. To improve your cholesterol profile, focus on a healthy diet rich in healthy fats (like omega-3s), fiber, and whole foods, while cutting back on sugary and processed foods. Exercise regularly, aim for weight management, avoid smoking, and limit alcohol. Its also important to discuss these results with your doctor, who may recommend further testing or medications, especially considering your history of heart attack. Regular follow-ups will be important to manage and track your progress.
