I've just found out that my triglycerides are really high at 690, and my total cholesterol is at 200. Could you please suggest what medication I should consider for this? I'm quite concerned and looking for some guidance.

I'm a bit worried about a possible heart issue. So, I was working and suddenly got this intense headache. I went to see a doctor, and my ECG was a bit off. The Troponin I test showed 0.15 while my BP was 144. The doctor advised me to rest for 45 days with some meds and said there's no need to worry. After two days, I checked my ECG and BP, and they were both normal. I'm really curious if there's still a risk of any heart stroke or damage. What do you think?
A sudden headache and an elevated troponin I level of 0.15 ngmL can be concerning, as troponin is a marker of heart muscle damage. However, since your ECG and blood pressure are now normal and your doctor advised rest and medication, it appears that any immediate risk has been managed. It's important to follow your doctor's advice, take your medication, and rest as prescribed. Additionally, continue to monitor your symptoms and follow up with your healthcare provider for any further evaluation or tests they recommend. If you experience any new or worsening symptoms, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or another severe headache, seek medical attention immediately.
