I've been noticing that my resting pulse rate is around 90-100, and sometimes it even goes above 100. I often feel these strong heart palpitations. I had an echo done, and everything seemed normal, and my blood pressure is fine too. I'm 24 and weigh 67 kg. People say it might be due to anxiety, and yeah, I do worry about my career and family like everyone else. I don't eat junk food, and I drink about 3-4 cups of tea a day max. I'm just really trying to figure out what's going on with me. Could it really be just anxiety, or should I be looking into something else?

View allI'm a bit confused about the results of my TMT test. I didn't feel any chest pain during the test, and it said negative for inducible Ischaemia. But then my doctor mentioned the test was mildly positive. Does this mean I need to consider getting an angiogram?
yes as a prognostic tool you may undergo angiogram as advised.

I'm really worried because I've been hearing a lot about high cholesterol and its impact on heart health. How serious is it if someone has high cholesterol levels, and what steps can I take to manage or lower it? Are there specific foods or lifestyle changes I should consider?
It seems like you are concerned about high cholesterol levels. To help lower cholesterol, you can consider taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 10-20 mg daily. Additionally, incorporating lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet low in saturated fats and regular exercise can also be beneficial in managing cholesterol levels.

I'm concerned about the increase in my cholesterol levels over the past few months. Back in October 2021, my total cholesterol was 190 mgdL and LDL was 115 mgdL. But in January 2022, my total cholesterol went up to 210 mgdL and LDL to 128 mgdL. I'm worried about this change and wondering what might have caused it. Could you suggest some ways to manage or reduce these levels?
In Oct 2021, your total cholesterol was 190 mgdl and LDL was 115 mgdl. In Jan 2022, your total cholesterol increased to 210 mgdl and LDL increased to 128 mgdl. The reason for the increase in cholesterol levels could be due to dietary changes, lack of physical activity, or genetic factors. To help lower your cholesterol levels, you can try incorporating lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, a healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, and possibly medication if recommended by your healthcare provider. For example, you can consider taking Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help lower your LDL cholesterol levels.
