I'm 27 and I've been getting these chest pains and sometimes my heart just races out of nowhere. Every now and then, I also find it a bit hard to breathe. What do you think could be going on?

View allI've been taking a combo of moduretic and lisinopril for a few years now, with 20mg of lisinopril and 5mg of moduretic. I'm 40 years old, weigh 120kg, and I'm 6ft tall. I try to stay active by working out three times a week. But anytime I push myself a bit, like getting to sleep late, having a few extra drinks, or dealing with stress, my blood pressure seems to get really resistant for days. Is there something I'm missing or should be doing differently?

I've just gone over my lipid profile results and it's showing a level of 244. I'm really concerned about what this means for my health. What steps can I take to bring it back to normal levels? Also, I'm curious about at what point a bypass might become necessary. Can you give me some guidance on this?
To help lower your cholesterol levels, you can start by making lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, exercising regularly, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding smoking. If lifestyle changes alone are not enough to lower your cholesterol levels to a healthy range, your doctor may prescribe medication to help manage your cholesterol. Commonly prescribed medications to lower cholesterol include atorvastatin (Lipitor) at a starting dose of 10-20 mg once daily or rosuvastatin (Crestor) at a starting dose of 5-10 mg once daily. As for when a bypass is needed, the decision to undergo bypass surgery is based on various factors such as the severity of blockages in the coronary arteries, symptoms, and overall health condition. Bypass surgery is usually considered when there are significant blockages in the coronary arteries that cannot be effectively managed with medications or other interventions. Remember to follow up with your doctor for personalized recommendations and monitoring of your cholesterol levels.

My mom and dad are both senior citizens, and I've been getting a bit concerned about their heart health because there seem to be so many cases of blockages popping up lately. I think catching any issues early on would be really helpful. Also, I've noticed these yellow patches around my mom's eyes, and when I looked it up, it seems like they might be cholesterol deposits or Xanthelasma. Could you suggest what tests we should consider for early detection of any possible issues?
