Question 1

I've been having chest pain for the last 10 days and I'm really concerned because both my ECG and 2D Echo results came back normal. They mentioned something about PAH and mild TR. Could you please suggest what kind of medication or next steps I should consider?

Question 3

I'm a little worried because my heart rate's been around 120 to 130, which seems pretty high. On top of that, my cholesterol levels aren't great either. My triglycerides are 417, HDL is 21, LDL is 102, Non-HDL is 179, and VLDL is 83.4. What do you think could be going on? Should I be concerned?

Accepted Answer

A pulse rate of 120 to 130, combined with high cholesterol levels, requires attention to reduce cardiovascular risk. Consult your healthcare provider to evaluate underlying conditions like hyperthyroidism or anxiety, and to discuss potential medications such as statins for cholesterol and beta-blockers for heart rate control. Implement lifestyle changes like a heart-healthy diet, regular physical activity, and reducing intake of saturated fats and sugars. Regular monitoring of your cholesterol and heart rate is essential to track progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed. Please follow up with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized advice.

I've had a CBAG procedure back in 2006 and I'm currently on ATORVA 10 mg, but I'm wondering if it might be better for me to switch to Clopitorva A 75. Can you help me understand the differences and which might be more beneficial for my condition?

Ideally you have to take both,its better to have an openion with cardiologist
