I've noticed some changes in my recent lab results, and I'm a bit worried. My triglycerides have gone up from 374 in December to 470 mgdl now. My HDL improved from 31 to 42 mgdl, but my LDL dropped from 153 to 78 mgdl and my VLDL jumped from 34 to 94 mgdl. I haven't taken any medicine, just changed my diet and stopped eating out. Should I see a cardiologist or just a regular physician?

I recently got my 2D Echo test results, and I'm trying to make sense of them. It mentioned things like mild thickening of the mitral valve, mild MR, mild concentric LVH, and that the chambers are normal with good LVRV function. There's also a mention of "No LV RWMA."

I'm feeling a bit worried and would love some clarity on what this all means for my heart health.

MR treatment -diuretics,mital valve replacemet and repair .and blood thinners.like aspirin,brillinta,clopidogel and enoxaparin ,eliquis etc....

I've been feeling this weird pulsating in my stomach, and naturally, I've gone down the rabbit hole on the internet about abdominal aortic aneurysms. I'm only 21, but I can't help but wonder if it's possible for me to have one. I don't have any family history of it, but I'm a bit overweight and my heart rate is faster than normal. Should I be concerned about this?

I'm trying to figure out the best times of day to take my medications and I'm a bit confused. Here's what I'm currently doing: I take Eltroxin 75 mg on an empty stomach, Vertiford 8 mg and Nexito 20 mg after breakfast, and then after dinner, I have Dilzem 90 SR, Dicorate 250 mg (12 tablet), and Rosufit CV 10. Could you help me understand if these are the right times for each pill? I'm really not sure if I'm doing it the best way.
