I've been dealing with high triglyceride and cholesterol levels, like 245 and 280. I started taking this med, ROZUCOR 10 mg, which helped, but I ended up with really cold feet, body aches, and some weird neuropathy feelings. My tests like H1bac at 4.9 and BS at 94, and Tsh came back normal. The symptoms eased off once I stopped the meds. Now, I'm wondering if there are other medications I could try for cholesterol that might not give me such side effects?

View allI'm really concerned about my dad's health. His recent report showed that his ejection fraction is at 38 when it's supposed to be around 50. He's having trouble with breathing too. Can you tell me how serious this is and what kind of treatments or precautions we should be considering?

I'm wondering if it's necessary to get an echo test for my mom. She's 47 and has slightly high cholesterol, but her ECG is normal. Should we be concerned about any potential heart issues, or is it okay to skip the echo test for now?
If your mother has high cholesterol and there are concerns about her heart health, it may be beneficial to get an echocardiogram (echo) done even if the ECG is normal. An echocardiogram is a test that uses sound waves to create detailed images of the heart and can provide valuable information about the structure and function of the heart. It can help assess for any potential heart conditions that may not be detected by an ECG alone. In this case, it would be advisable to consult with a cardiologist who can recommend the appropriate course of action based on your mother's individual health profile.
