This test will help assess your heart's response to physical stress and evaluate any possible blockages in the arteries.

Question 6

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?

Accepted Answer

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.
