I'm 20 years old and just had a lipid profile done. The results are attached here. Is it okay to take krill oil and atorvastatin 5 mg together after dinner? I'm a little concerned and would love your advice!

    • Without specific values, it's hard to assess your lipid profile. Generally, LDL should be low, HDL high, and triglycerides within a normal range for a healthy young adult male.
  2. Safety of Taking Krill Oil and Atorvastatin Together

    • Krill oil may help improve lipid levels. Atorvastatin lowers cholesterol. They can be taken together, but consult your doctor for personalized advice.
  3. Recommendations and Precautions

    • Always consult a healthcare provider before combining supplements and medications. Monitor lipid levels and liver function regularly.
  4. When to Seek Medical Advice

    • Seek immediate medical attention if you experience unusual symptoms like muscle pain, dark urine, or jaundice.
  5. Relevant Medical Specialties and Tests

Ive done all the heart tests like ECG and echocardiogram stress test, and everythings come back normal. But I still feel really anxious and notice my heart beating really fast. Should I be worried about this? Is there a chance it could be a sign of a heart attack or something serious?

It's good to hear that your heart tests have come back normal. Your symptoms of feeling anxious and experiencing a fast heart rate could be related to anxiety. To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking propranolol (Inderal) 10mg to 20mg as needed to help with the fast heart rate and anxiety. However, if you continue to have concerns or if your symptoms worsen, it's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit worried about my recent ECG results. It says I have a normal sinus rhythm but also an incomplete right bundle branch block and that its borderline ECG. Is this something serious I should be concerned about? I've done an ECG twice now, and I'm attaching both for your review. Could you help me understand what this means for my health?

I've been having mild chest pain continuously for about 23 hours, and it's the first time I've felt anything like this. I went to the hospital and got an ECG done, which came back as a Borderline ECG, and I've attached the report. The Troponin I test result was 0.01 ngml. My heartbeat seems to be averaging around 95-110 bpm. Should I be worried about this?

It is important to address the possibility of a cardiac issue. I recommend starting treatment with Aspirin to help prevent blood clot formation and reduce the risk of heart attack. Additionally, you should take Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further heart complications. It is also advisable to take Metoprolol to help regulate your heart rate and blood pressure. These medications will help manage your condition and reduce the risk of any potential heart problems. Please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring. Take care."
