Question 1

I'm really concerned about my cholesterol levels. I had really high LDL cholesterol at 293, but after taking medications like Rosuvastatin, changing my diet, and exercising more, my bad cholesterol has apparently gone down to normal. I'm wondering though, since high bad cholesterol is known for causing blockages in arteries, does it mean I'm in the clear now that my levels are normal? Or should I still be worried about any existing blockages?

Accepted Answer

After reducing your bad cholesterol levels with Roseday 10, diet, and exercise, it is likely that the risk of blockages in your arteries has decreased. However, it is important to continue with a healthy lifestyle to maintain these improvements. Regular monitoring of your cholesterol levels is also recommended to ensure they stay within a healthy range.

Question 2

I'm really worried because my fourth baby was found to have a small hole in the heart during an echo test done by a baby heart specialist. He said there's no need for medication right now and just advised a follow-up in six months. Does this mean it ...

Accepted Answer

It sounds like your baby has been diagnosed with a small hole in the heart, also known as a ventricular septal defect (VSD). In many cases, small VSDs can close on their own as the child grows. It is important to follow up with the baby heart specialist as recommended. In the meantime, you can ensure your baby receives proper nutrition and regular check-ups. It is important to monitor your baby for any signs of respiratory distress, poor feeding, or failure to thrive. If the VSD does not close on its own and causes symptoms, the specialist may recommend surgical intervention. However, in many cases, no treatment is necessary and the hole may close on its own over time. Remember to follow the specialist's advice and attend all follow-up appointments for monitoring the VSD.

Question 4

I'm getting really tired when I dance or do even small heavy tasks, and I'm not sure why. I already had an ECG, and it came back normal. I'm just wondering if there's something else that could be causing this?

Accepted Answer

Feeling tired during physical activity could be due to various reasons, even if your ECG results are normal. One common reason for this could be iron deficiency anemia. I recommend you to take iron supplements like Ferrous Sulfate 325mg once daily after meals for a few months. Additionally, make sure you are staying hydrated and eating a balanced diet rich in iron and other essential nutrients. If the symptoms persist, further evaluation may be needed.

Question 5

I'm dealing with severe anxiety and depression symptoms for the past few years, and I've had a couple of panic attacks. Now I'm seeing some ECG changes, but my Troponin levels are within normal limits. Both my ECHO and Angiography came out normal. Do...

Accepted Answer

The ECG changes could be related to your anxiety and panic attacks, but it's important to monitor them closely. To address the sharp pain in your heart area, you can take a low dose of a beta-blocker like Metoprolol (25-50mg) as needed for chest pain relief. For your weakness, you can try taking a daily dose of a multivitamin like Centrum to ensure you're getting essential nutrients. Cold feet can be improved by wearing warm socks and keeping your feet elevated when possible. Regular exercise is beneficial for anxiety and depression, but start with low to moderate intensity workouts and gradually increase the intensity based on your tolerance.

Question 6
