I've just found out that I have high cholesterol levels, and my uric acid is above normal too. I'm really worried and not sure what to do. Can you help me understand what kinds of food I should be avoiding to keep these in check?

I've been diagnosed with restrictive cardiomyopathy and my doctor has put me on Dytor 5 Plus and Cardace 1.25. He mentioned I need to take these meds for 6 months, but I'm a bit worried about whether it's really safe to be on Dytor 5 Plus for such a long period. Could there be any side effects from taking it for 6 months or maybe longer?

I'm really puzzled about something and could use some guidance. All my testsECG, echo, and TMTcame back normal, yet I'm experiencing this weird pain in my chest muscle, especially when I touch it or sit down. There's also this mild pain below my collarbone and at the back of my left rib when I touch those areas. It almost feels like there's some swelling right below my left collarbone, but everything looks normal when I check in the mirror. Any idea what might be going on?

Based on your description, it seems like you may be experiencing musculoskeletal chest pain rather than a cardiac issue since your ECG, echo, and TMT are normal. The pain you are feeling when touching your chest muscles and the mild pain below the collar bone and back side of the left rib could be due to muscle strain or inflammation. To help relieve the pain and swelling, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the affected area and gently massaging the muscles may also provide some relief. If the pain persists or worsens, it would be advisable to consult with a doctor for further evaluation and management.
