I'm 35 and recently got some blood work done. My LDL is at 123, triglycerides are 100, and my cholesterol is 178. I'm pretty worried about the LDL number. Are these levels okay, or should I be concerned? Can you help clear up my doubt?

Based on the provided readings, your LDL level of 123 mgdL falls within the optimal range for LDL cholesterol (less than 100 mgdL is considered optimal). Your triglyceride level of 100 mgdL is also within the normal range (less than 150 mgdL is considered normal). Additionally, your total cholesterol level of 178 mgdL is within the desirable range (less than 200 mgdL is considered desirable). Overall, your lipid profile seems to be within normal limits. However, it is always important to consider other risk factors for heart disease and consult with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation.

I'm having this breathlessness now and then, especially when I'm traveling or visiting new places. There's also this tightness right in the middle of my chest. Do you think this could be anxiety, or should I be worried about something related to my heart?
it's related to heart

my dad has an 80% heart block should we consider open heart surgery or is medication enough to manage it
80% heart block usually requires stenting or bypass surgery, depending on angiography results. Medicines alone may not be enough.
