I'm really concerned about my recent ECG results, which showed an incomplete right bundle branch block (RBbb). On top of that, I've been dealing with high blood pressure. I'm wondering how serious this might be and what steps I should take next. Can you help me understand this better?

I'm a bit confused about my liver function test results. My total cholesterol is at 230, and I've gotten different opinions from doctors. Some suggest medication, while others say it's nothing to worry about. Should I be concerned about this level? When exactly should I start taking action or medication?

A total cholesterol level of 230 is considered borderline high, which means you're at risk of developing heart disease. The American Heart Association recommends aiming for a total cholesterol level below 200 milligrams per deciliter (mgdL). Here are some conditions where you should take care: Liver-Related Conditions - Fatty Liver Disease: Excess fat accumulation in liver cells can disrupt liver function and increase cholesterol levels. - Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH): A more severe form of fatty liver disease characterized by inflammation and scarring. - Cirrhosis: Late-stage liver disease where liver tissue is replaced by scar tissue, affecting cholesterol metabolism [1). Lifestyle Changes To manage your cholesterol levels: - Exercise Regularly: Aim for 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise weekly. - Follow a Healthy Diet: Focus on whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and lean protein sources. - Maintain a Healthy Weight: Excess weight contributes to high cholesterol [1).

I've been having some pretty intense heart palpitations, sometimes around 130 bpm, which really worried me. Our family doctor suggested I get admitted just to keep an eye on it. I ended up having four ECGs and a 2D echo, and thankfully, everything came back normal. Despite that, I still sometimes feel those palpitations. Is this something I should be really worried about? Also, I've been feeling some pain near my left shoulder blade and the left side of my chest just below the shoulder. Could these be connected?
