View allI'm a bit worried because I've noticed that my resting heart rate is consistently between 90 and 100 beats per minute, even after starting a beta blocker. I'm taking Metocard XL 50 mg. Is this something I should be concerned about, or is there anything I should do differently?
no problem

I'm really worried about my health and wanted to ask about my cholesterol levels. My LDL is 108, HDL is just 27, and my total cholesterol is 127. I had gallbladder removal surgery back in 2013. I'm wondering, given these numbers, how at risk am I for heart disease? Also, my weight is 103 kilos and I'm 176 cm tall. What steps should I take to improve my situation and get my levels to where they should be?
Your LDL cholesterol level of 108 mgdL and HDL cholesterol level of 27 mgdL, along with a total cholesterol of 127 mgdL, indicate a relatively low risk of heart disease. However, since you have a history of gallbladder surgery in 2013, it's important to take proactive steps to maintain heart health. To improve your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease, you can consider lifestyle modifications such as following a heart-healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, engaging in regular physical activity, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding smoking. Additionally, your healthcare provider may recommend medications such as statins to further manage your cholesterol levels. It's essential to continue monitoring your cholesterol levels regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider for personalized recommendations based on your medical history and risk factors.
