I'm really worried about my lipid profile results. My triglycerides and total cholesterol are both at 172, VLDL is 95.5, and HDL is 42. Plus, my TMT test showed ischemia. I'm experiencing some issues with my body. What kind of treatment should I consider? Would really appreciate your advice on this.

based on your lipid profile results and the presence of ischemia on your TMT test, it indicates that you have high levels of VLDL cholesterol and triglycerides, and low HDL cholesterol. To help improve your lipid profile and reduce the risk of cardiovascular issues, I recommend the following treatment: - Start taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) 20mg once daily to lower your total cholesterol levels. - Add Fenofibrate (brand name Tricor) 145mg once daily to specifically target and lower your triglyceride levels. - Increase your intake of Omega-3 fatty acids by consuming foods like fatty fish or consider taking Omega-3 supplements. - Make lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, engaging in regular physical activity, and avoiding smoking. For your body problems, it would be best to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

So, I'm 14 and have been masturbating for about a year now. It feels really good when I do it, but afterwards, I notice that my heartbeat feels louder and sometimes it races. Can you tell me if that's normal or if I should be concerned?
It's important to know that changes in heart rate can be influenced by various factors, including anxiety, stress, and physical activity. However, if you're concerned about these symptoms, I recommend consulting with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness to help manage your symptoms.

I've recently had a TMT test done last month, and while I was on the treadmill, I started feeling really breathless and dizzy. It was kind of scary, but the doctor said the results were normal. I've got the TMT result attached. Is it common to feel like that even if the results come out okay, or should I be worried about something else?
normal finding tmt report.
