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.

View allI've been trying to eat better and exercise a bit more, but I'm worried because my triglyceride levels are still going up. Last year they were 286, and now they're 365. I've been taking fish liver oil and eating flax seeds regularly. Do you have any advice on what else I could do?
Statins and fibrates are medications that can help lower triglycerides. Statins primarily lower LDL (bad) cholesterol levels, but they can also modestly reduce triglycerides. Fibrates are specifically effective at lowering triglyceride levels

I'm experiencing this buzzing sensation on the left side of my chest that comes and goes quickly. It's been happening since yesterday. I know I might be anemic, but could this be because my hemoglobin levels are low?
The intermittent buzzing sensation in your left chest area could be related to various factors, including anxiety, stress, or cardiac issues, but it's unlikely directly caused by low hemoglobin (Hb) levels due to anemia; however, anemia can lead to heart palpitations, shortness of breath, or dizziness, so it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation, including blood tests and possibly an ECG, to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms.

I'm having some neck and shoulder pain and got an ECG done. The results mentioned something called "middling left axis deviation." Can you explain what this might mean?
Due to neck and shoulders pain, the ECG showing middling left axis deviation may indicate a possible heart condition. It is recommended to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief.
