I'm looking for an alternative to Arvast gold since it's not available where I live. My doctor prescribed it to me, and I'm worried because I can't find it. Can you help me figure out what I should do?

View allI'm a bit concerned because my LDL level is at 130.8. Is this something I should be worried about? What can I do to lower it? Do you think I need to start taking any medication?
LDL level of 130.8 mgdL is slightly above the optimal range. To decrease this level, you can make lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight. If these measures are not enough, medication may be required. Medications like Atorvastatin (Lipitor) or Rosuvastatin (Crestor) can be prescribed to help lower LDL levels. It's important to consult with your healthcare provider to determine the best treatment plan for you.

I've just had my routine check-up and my ECG results showed something called T wave inversion in the inferior leads. I'm a 34-year-old guy, pretty healthy overall, and I don't smoke or drink. Should I be worried about this? Is it something serious?
This finding can sometimes be a normal variant, especially in young healthy individuals like yourself who do not have any symptoms or risk factors such as smoking or drinking. However, it can also be associated with certain heart conditions. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and monitoring. If no other concerning symptoms are present, no treatment may be necessary at this time.
