Question

I'm really worried about my lipid profile results. My triglycerides and total cholesterol are both at 172, VLDL is 95.5, and HDL is 42. Plus, my TMT test showed ischemia. I'm experiencing some issues with my body. What kind of treatment should I consider? Would really appreciate your advice on this.

Question

I've been experiencing this really painful, pinching sharp heartache that makes it hard to breathe. It's mostly in the upper part of my left chest and lasts around 2 minutes. It's happened a couple of times even when I was on an empty stomach or just had some warm lemon water. I've had it at night before dinner too. I got some blood tests done, and they said my lymphocytes were high, but sugar was normal. I often feel short of breath while sitting too, and climbing stairs always makes me breathless. This month, its happened like three times. Do you have any ideas about what this could be?

Question
