Question

My mom's blood pressure is high, around 180100, and we went to see two different doctors. One gave her cilacar 10, and the other suggested telmipil am 405. I'm really confused about which one she should take. Any thoughts on which might be more effective or better for her condition?

Question

I've been using my Fitbit for a few weeks and noticed my heart rate usually tops out at 120 BPM. But today, while just walking, it spiked to 162 BPM in the afternoon. What might be causing this? Is this something I should be worried about?

Question

I'm a 37-year-old guy and I've just got my lipid test results back. I'm a bit concerned about some of the numbers, like the LDL at 120 mgdl, triglycerides at 231 mgdl, and VLDL at 46.2 mgdl. My triglycerides to HDL ratio is also 7.4. Could you please guide me on what steps I should take next for treatment or lifestyle changes?

Question

I've been really worried about some recent health issues and could use some advice. I had an angioplasty back in 2013 and also dealt with Covid in August '20. Recently, I had some pain in my left arm, so I went to the cardiologist. The ECG came back normal, but some of my test results are concerning. My homocysteine level is at 44, triglycerides are sitting at 275, but my creatinine and cholesterol are normal. My SGPT is at 46 and B12 is at 218. I'm really anxious because I know the high homocysteine could mean a higher chance of another heart issue. Should I be considering more tests, like angiography, or is there a treatment plan you would suggest? Just hoping to get some peace of mind here.
