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'm a bit worried because I had an Eco ECG TMT and some blood tests done about a month ago, and everything came back normal. But now, for the past two days, I've been having this pain in my left chest, especially when I'm trying to sleep. It's hard to get comfortable, and breathing seems to make it worse when I'm lying down. Any idea why this is happening if all my tests were normal? Could you suggest any painkillers that might help?

I've recently had a TMT test done and I'm trying to wrap my head around the results. The test summary says Total Time is 631, Max HR Attained is 184 bpm, and it's 96% of my target, which is 191. It also mentions Max BP is 190100 and Max workload is 7.6 with Bruce Protocol. My doctor said everything looks fine and that I shouldn't worry, but I just want to make sure all these values are normal. Could you help me understand if there's anything I should be concerned about or if it's all really okay?

I'm a bit worried about my cholesterol levels. My total cholesterol is 226, HDL is 51, and LDL is 172. Do you think there's a risk with these numbers? Should I be considering any medication?
Total cholesterol level of 226 with HDL of 51 and LDL of 172 indicates a higher risk for cardiovascular disease. It is important to manage these levels to reduce the risk. Lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management are important. In addition, medication may be required to lower cholesterol levels. I recommend starting a statin medication such as Atorvastatin at a dose of 20mg daily to help lower LDL cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.
