Here are the other numbers from my test: Cholesterol is at 142 mgdL, Triglycerides are 127 mgdL, LDL is 82 mgdL, VLDL is 25 mgdL, the CholesterolHDL ratio is 4.1, HDLLDL ratio is 0.43, LDLHDL ratio is 2.33, and Non-HDL cholesterol is 107 mgdL. What steps can I take to improve my HDL cholesterol levels?

View allI'm a 28-year-old guy dealing with costochondritis and whenever I visit the doctor, my heart rate skyrockets and my blood pressure goes up, but when I'm back home, everything seems to settle down to normal. I'm really anxious about this. Could you help me understand what's happening and any suggestions on what I could do?
Your symptoms suggest white coat hypertension and anxiety, common in people with costochondritis; to manage anxiety, consider relaxation techniques like deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or meditation, and for white coat hypertension, ask your doctor about ambulatory blood pressure monitoring or home blood pressure tracking to get accurate readings and alleviate anxiety-related spikes.

I'm really concerned about my dad's blood pressure. He's been dealing with high BP for a while, but it was stable and normal the past few days. Today it shot up to 153110 and he took his usual Tazlock 20, which has Telmisartan IP in it. Is this something we should be really worried about and what steps should we take from here?
yes you can use

Not too long ago, I had heartburn for over three weeks, and my doctor recommended Robo 20 tablets which helped with that.
