Ive been feeling really tired lately, and all my tests came back normal except for my lipid profile. Turns out my cholesterol level is really low. My LDL cholesterol is at 30, the LDLHDL ratio is 0.61, and the cholesterolHDL ratio is 1.76. Should I be worried about this? It's really stressing me out.

Having a low cholesterol level, especially low LDL cholesterol level, is generally considered beneficial for heart health. Your LDLHDL ratio and cholesterolHDL ratio are also within normal ranges, which is a good sign. However, if you are feeling tired and stressed, it's important to address those symptoms. To help with your fatigue and stress, you can consider taking a multivitamin supplement like Centrum to ensure you are getting all the essential nutrients. Additionally, you can try a natural supplement like Rhodiola Rosea to help with stress management. Make sure to get enough rest, eat a balanced diet, and stay hydrated. If your symptoms persist, consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm really worried about my blood pressure. Are there any known cases of curing essential hypertension? It seems like my sympathetic nervous system is always in overdrive, causing my body to jump into fight or flight mode for no reason. There's no sign of any tumors on my pituitary or adrenal glands, and all my blood tests and ECGs have come back normal. Is it possible to permanently fix this by getting my sympathetic nervous system back to normal?

While essential hypertension may not be "cured" in the traditional sense, it can be effectively managed through a combination of lifestyle changes, stress management, and medication. Working with a healthcare professional to optimize treatment, including controlling SNS overactivity, is important to help manage your blood pressure and prevent complications.
