I've been experiencing this strange body shake with every heartbeat, and its been going on for about four months now. I've had an echo and an ECG, both of which came back normal. But I can still see my fingers, hand, stomach, and even my head shake with each heartbeat. It's really puzzling me. What could be causing this?

I'm a bit worried about my mom's condition after her angioplasty. It's been about three weeks now and her hand was pretty swollen. The swelling is getting better, but there are still blue and red patches on her skin. They seem to be fading, and the pain isn't as bad as before, but I'm just really curious about what's causing these color changes. Does this indicate something serious, or is it a normal part of the healing process? Her current medications include Brilinta, Ecosprin, and insulin. I've attached a photo to show you what it looks like. Could you help me understand what's happening?

The blue and red color patches on your mother's hand after angioplasty are likely due to bruising and inflammation, which can be a common side effect of the procedure. As the swelling has reduced and the patches are vanishing slowly, along with a reduction in pain, it indicates that her body is healing properly. This is a normal part of the recovery process after angioplasty. To help with the healing process, you can continue with the current medications. Additionally, you can apply a cold compress to the affected area and elevate the hand to reduce swelling. If there is persistent pain or if you notice any signs of infection such as increased redness, warmth, or discharge from the area, then it would be advisable to consult with the treating physician for further evaluation.

My mother's cholesterol level is really high at 403 mgdL, and her serum triglycerides are at 178 mgdL. What's strange is that she doesn't have any symptoms you'd usually expect with high cholesterol, like chest pain or nausea. Could you take a look at her lipid profile report and let me know what you think? I'm really worried because it doesn't add up.

Since she is not experiencing any symptoms of high cholesterol like chest pain or nausea, she may not require immediate treatment. However, it is important to manage her cholesterol levels to prevent future health issues. I recommend starting her on a statin medication like Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a low dose of 10mg daily. Additionally, she can take Omega-3 fatty acids supplements to help lower triglyceride levels. It is also important for her to follow a healthy diet low in saturated fats and sugars, and engage in regular exercise. Regular monitoring of her lipid profile is essential to track progress.
