I'm 32 and just found out my triglycerides are at 360. Should I be taking meds to bring it down, or is there a natural way to manage this? Really need some guidance here.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For your triglyceride level of 360, it is recommended to make lifestyle changes first to try and lower it naturally. This includes maintaining a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, regular exercise, and avoiding alcohol and smoking. However, if these measures are not enough to lower your triglycerides, medication may be necessary. You can consider using Atorvastatin 10mg once daily to help lower your triglyceride levels. Remember to consult with your doctor before starting any medication.

I'm a bit confused about my recent test results. My echo test came back normal, but my ECG report is considered borderline. Could you help me understand what this means? Should I be concerned or take any specific actions?
A borderline ECG report means that there may be some minor abnormalities or variations in the electrical activity of your heart, but they are not significant enough to definitively diagnose a specific condition. In this case, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring. Depending on your specific symptoms and medical history, your doctor may recommend further tests or medications. In the meantime, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet.

I've just had a 2D echo because I was experiencing chest pain, and I'm currently breastfeeding. Could you take a look at the results? I'm really worried about whether mild TR is something to be concerned about. Would love your insight on this situation.
Mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a common finding in many people and is often not a cause for concern. However, since you are experiencing chest pain and are a breastfeeding mother, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can take Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for chest pain relief.
