I'm a 25-year-old woman and just got my lipid profile results back. My HDL cholesterol is at 42 mgdL, and I heard that's not great. What can I do to increase it? I'm a bit worried about it. Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm a bit concerned about my wife's recent master health checkup. Her ECG results came back abnormal, but her TMT was normal. Could you help us understand what the abnormal ECG might mean? We would appreciate any insights you have.

I cannot view attachments, but if your wifes ECG results show abnormalities, it could indicate various issues like arrhythmias, heart strain, or other conditions. Since her TMT was normal, its a positive sign, but I would recommend discussing the ECG results further with her doctor to pinpoint the exact cause and get proper guidance.

I'm dealing with mild concentric LVH and my LVEF is at 65. I also have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction and mild to moderate MR, with an RVSP of 44 mm Hg. I find myself experiencing chest pain occasionally. What should I do about this, and is there something specific I should be concerned about?

Based on your condition, it is important to manage your chest pain and address the underlying heart issues. You may benefit from medications such as ACE inhibitors like Enalapril 5-20mg once daily to help with your heart function and blood pressure control. Additionally, a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25-100mg once or twice daily can also be prescribed to improve heart function and reduce chest pain. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly for monitoring and further management.
