I'm 20 years old and I've been diagnosed with sinus tachycardia. I also have an overactive thyroid, and I've been told my heart's right ventricle is a little bigger than the left. Could all of this be a serious health risk?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Sinus tachycardia in the setting of an overactive thyroid can sometimes lead to complications, especially if left untreated. The enlarged right ventricle may be a result of the increased workload on the heart due to the tachycardia. It is important to manage both the thyroid condition and the tachycardia to prevent further complications. Medications such as Propranolol can be used to help control the heart rate and symptoms. Regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is essential to ensure proper management of your condition.

I'm really concerned about my triglyceride levels, which are over 700 mgdL. Could you advise me on what foods I should be eating or avoiding? Also, do you know what kind of medication I should consider?
For high triglyceride levels, it is important to follow a healthy diet and lifestyle. You should focus on consuming foods that are low in saturated fats, trans fats, and cholesterol. Foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as fatty fish (salmon, mackerel, sardines), flaxseeds, and walnuts, can help lower triglyceride levels. Increase your intake of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Avoid or limit intake of sugary foods and beverages, refined carbohydrates, alcohol, and saturated fats (found in red meat, butter, cheese). It is also important to maintain a healthy weight and engage in regular physical activity. As for medication, your doctor may prescribe statins such as Atorvastatin or Rosuvastatin to help lower your triglyceride levels. They may also consider prescribing fibrates such as Fenofibrate or Omega-3 fatty acid supplements to help manage your triglycerides. It is important to follow your doctor's advice closely and make the necessary lifestyle changes to improve your triglyceride levels.
