I'm really worried about my husband. He's 30 years old, with a height of 5.4 ft and weighs 64 kg. We stay in Germany, and he's been having a rough time with his health lately, especially with frequent gastric issues. His cholesterol levels have been all over the place. The first test showed a triglycerides level of 701, and even though it went down to 516 on the second test after three months, it's still pretty high, right? His HDL is at 21 and LDL at 46, with a Lipase of 46 UI and TSH at 1.22 microUml. Are these numbers something we should be concerned about? What could be causing these gastric problems? We really need some guidance on what steps to take next.

Based on the information provided, your husband's high triglyceride levels and low HDL cholesterol levels may be contributing to his gastric issues. To help manage his triglyceride levels, he can take Atorvastatin 20mg once daily. Additionally, to improve his HDL levels, he can take Niacin 500mg once daily. For his gastric issues, he can take Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast. It is also important for him to follow a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, and to engage in regular physical activity to improve his overall lipid profile and gastric health.

I've been feeling this cramp in my upper left abdomen for a few days now, and I had an ultrasound that didn't show anything wrong. Lately, there's this tingling sensation in my left chest. It doesn't hurt, but it's really annoying and just comes and goes. It's not happening at any set times, but it's still concerning me. As a smoker, should I be worried about this?
