I'm a bit concerned after my recent health check-up. My ECG showed moderate ST depression, but my 2D Echo came out normal. My blood pressure was also 14590. The doctor said it might be due to anxiety and stress. Could this really be the cause, or should I be worried about something else? Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm starting to get concerned about my cholesterol levels, even though my overall cholesterol is 185, which doesn't seem too bad. But my triglycerides are on the higher side, and I'm wondering if this is something to worry about. Are there any natural ways to bring those levels down, or should I be considering medication? Would love to hear your thoughts.
To help reduce triglyceride levels naturally, you can try incorporating lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet low in sugar and refined carbohydrates, increasing physical activity, and avoiding excessive alcohol consumption. Additionally, omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil supplements can also help lower triglyceride levels. If lifestyle changes are not enough to lower triglyceride levels, medication may be recommended. One common medication used to lower triglycerides is Fenofibrate. The usual dosage for Fenofibrate is 48 to 145 mg per day, as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

I've been taking medication for high blood pressure and I'm just wondering what the normal range for blood pressure should be. Can you give me some advice on this?
The normal range for blood pressure values is typically around 12080 mmHg. For individuals on antihypertensive medication, the target blood pressure may vary slightly based on individual health conditions and guidance from your healthcare provider. Generally, maintaining a blood pressure below 13080 mmHg is often recommended to reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications. It's important to regularly monitor your blood pressure and follow your doctor's advice on medication and lifestyle changes to keep it within the target range.
