I've just gotten my blood test results back, and I'm a bit worried because my HDL cholesterol level is pretty low at 29 mgdl. Plus, my TCHDL cholesterol ratio is 5.2. Could you tell me what this means and how I might improve these numbers?
Low HDL cholesterol levels can increase the risk of heart disease. To improve your HDL cholesterol levels and lower your TCHDL cholesterol ratio, you can consider taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 10-20 mg daily. Additionally, incorporating lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, and avoiding smoking can also help improve your cholesterol levels.

I've got a CRP level of 55.4 mgL, and I know that's pretty high. I have MVP and MR but no symptoms. What's going on with the CRP? Should I be worried? Any advice on what I should do next?
In the case of mitral valve prolapse (MVP) and mitral regurgitation (MR), an elevated CRP level of 55.4 mgl could be due to the presence of inflammation related to these conditions. Since you are not experiencing any symptoms, it is important to monitor your condition closely. To help manage inflammation and potentially reduce CRP levels, you can consider taking anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg twice daily after meals. Additionally, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet can also help in managing inflammation. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your MVP and MR, as they can provide personalized recommendations based on your individual health status.
