My dad was in the hospital, had an angiography, and they put a stent in his heart. Ever since, his heart rate's been all over the place, and he's been vomiting blood after eating or drinking. What's going on? Is this normal after a procedure like this, or should we be really concerned?

I've just got my test results and it says my triglycerides are at 186 mgdL. I'm a bit worried about whether this is within the normal range or not. Also, the report shows my LDL is 99.80. Could you help me understand what these numbers mean for my health?

based on your triglyceride level of 186 mgdl, it is considered borderline high. The normal range for triglycerides is typically less than 150 mgdl. As for your LDL level of 99.80, it is within the optimal range. To help lower your triglyceride levels, you can consider taking Atorvastatin 10mg once daily. It is important to also follow a healthy diet and lifestyle to manage your lipid levels effectively.

I'm having high BP of around 13090 for the past five years and was on Aten 0.25 and Restyl 0.25 for sleep issues. After a couple of years, I had to increase Restyl to 0.5 because the lower dose wasn't helping much with sleep. Then after five years, that too stopped being effective, so I decided to stop taking both Restyl and Aten. I'm trying out ayurvedic medicines now. A friend of mine mentioned having 5 to 10 ml of beer with 6% alcohol for better sleep. I'm curious if that's a good idea or if there are better alternatives.

My mom recently had an angioplasty and her doctor originally put her on Abiflo, but now they've switched her to Syscan. Since the switch, she's been having some issues like itching on her lips and face, plus there's some swelling on her left foot. Should we be worried about these side effects?
