I'm feeling this weird sinking sensation in my chest every now and then, especially when I'm super stressed out. It's kind of freaking me out, even though I've had an ECG and checked my blood pressure, and both are normal. What could this possibly mean?

I'm really confused about my cholesterol levels. I just found out they're very high, even though I'm pretty active and do heavy workouts every day. I'm 76 kg and 173 cm tall. I thought exercising regularly would help, but my cholesterol still isn't going down. Can someone explain why this might be happening or what I should consider doing next?

In addition to exercise, it's important to focus on your diet and possibly consider medication to help lower your cholesterol levels. I recommend you start taking Atorvastatin 20mg once daily. This medication will help lower your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. Remember to continue your exercise routine and follow a healthy diet to further improve your cholesterol levels.
