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 allIs a pulse rate of 55-65 normal? We've started my dad on Concor AM 5mg for the last couple of days, and now we're noticing his pulse rate is around that range, plus he's been experiencing some irregular heartbeats and mild chest pain. He's already dealing with hypertension and after a bout with COVID had palpitations and a pulse hitting 120, so he took Ivabid for a month, then switched to Dilzem CD 90mg for another month. We did notice his aortic valve is dilated at 4.3 cm. I'm really worried and wondering if we should continue with Concor, or could it further lower his pulse rate?
A pulse rate of 55-65 can be considered normal for some individuals, especially those who are physically fit. However, considering your father's history of hypertension, irregular heartbeat, chest pain, and previous cardiac medications, it is essential to monitor his condition closely. Concor AM 5mg is a combination of Bisoprolol and Amlodipine, which helps in controlling blood pressure and heart rate. Given his symptoms and medical history, it is crucial to consult with his healthcare provider to adjust the dosage or consider alternative medications. Continuing Concor may further decrease the pulse rate, so medical advice is necessary to ensure his safety and well-being.

I'm taking Supradyn multivitamins, and I've been having some chest pain and noticing my hair getting thinner. Do you think I should stop taking these tablets?
Consult with a healthcare provider to assess your symptoms, and consider stopping the supplement temporarily to see if the chest pain or hair thinning improves. If necessary, they can recommend a different course of action, including alternative supplements or tests.

I've been told that my cholesterol is really high at 396 and my triglycerides are at 910. I'm only 37 and I'm pretty worried about what this means for my health. What steps should I take to get these numbers down?
You have high cholesterol and high triglycerides at a young age of 37. To help lower your cholesterol and triglyceride levels, you can start by making lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight. In addition to lifestyle changes, your doctor may prescribe medications to help lower your cholesterol and triglyceride levels. For high cholesterol, medications such as Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a starting dose of 10-20 mg once daily may be prescribed. For high triglycerides, medications such as Fenofibrate (brand name Tricor) at a starting dose of 145 mg once daily may be recommended. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations closely and have regular follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
