I'm Priyanka, and I'm a bit concerned about my health. My TMT test showed inconclusive results regarding ischemia. I'm also looking at my lipid profile, which shows total cholesterol at 172, triglycerides at 172, HDL at 42, and LDL at 95.5. Could you help me understand what these numbers mean for my health and suggest any steps I should take? I've been feeling unwell, and I'm not sure what to do next.

Hello Priyanka, based on your test results and symptoms, it seems like you may be experiencing some cardiovascular issues. I would recommend starting treatment with a statin medication to help lower your LDL cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. You can start taking Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help improve your lipid profile and reduce the risk of ischaemia. Additionally, you should focus on lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management to further improve your overall cardiovascular health.

View allI'm really concerned because my TMT came back positive and I've been told I've got a heart problem. What should I do now? How serious is this, and what's the next step?
Based on your positive TMT result and heart problem, I would recommend that you start taking Aspirin 75mg once daily to help reduce the risk of blood clots and improve blood flow to the heart. Additionally, you should also consider taking Atorvastatin 20mg daily to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart complications. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm feeling a bit worried and could use some advice. My cardiologist recently told me to take Ecosprin AV 7520 every evening. Meanwhile, my diabetologist has put me on Ator 10 at night along with Metsmall 500 SR and Semi Reclimet. Is it safe to be on both Atocor and Ecosprin at the same time? Is there something I should be looking out for or any side effects I should be aware of?
There is no harm in taking both Ator 10 (Atorvastatin) and Ecosprin AV 7520 (Aspirin + Atorvastatin) together as prescribed by your cardiologist and diabetologist. Ator 10 is a brand name for Atorvastatin, which is a statin used to lower cholesterol levels, while Ecosprin AV 7520 contains Aspirin and Atorvastatin, which helps in preventing blood clots and reducing cholesterol. Just make sure to follow the prescribed dosages: Ecosprin AV 7520 daily in the evening and Ator 10 at night along with Metsmall 500 SR and Semi Reclimet.
