What are the heart disease causes & risk factors?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
With time, raised blood sugar levels can damage the blood vessels and nerves that control the heart. Additionally, people with diabetes are also more likely to have other conditions that raise the risk for heart disease such as high blood pressure and deranged cholesterol or triglyceride levels.

View allI'm a 30-year-old guy, and my LDL is 110 while my triglycerides are at 264. The doctor put me on this medication, Rozavel F 5, which is a statin and fenofibrate combo. I'm just wondering if it's safe to take both of these together. What should I be aware of?
Yes, it is generally safe to take a statin like Rozavel F 5 (Rosuvastatin) along with fenofibrate for lowering LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels. The combination can be effective in managing high cholesterol levels. The usual dosage of Rozavel F 5 is 1 tablet daily. However, it is important to follow your doctor's advice and monitor for any potential side effects.

I'm a 43-year-old guy, and I've been dealing with some chest pain, so I had an echocardiogram done. They found grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. My blood pressure's been a bit off too; usually, the systolic pressure is between 120 and 126, but the diastolic is always around 90 to 96. I've also been taking Roseday 10mg for a few months since my LDL cholesterol was slightly above the borderline. I'm really curious if I should be on any medication for my blood pressure and if I should be concerned about this diastolic dysfunction thing. Does it get worse over time?
Consider medication for high diastolic BP, especially since its consistently elevated. Continue your current medication (Roseday) for cholesterol management, but ensure your BP is addressed as well. Be proactive about lifestyle changes, such as diet, exercise, and stress management. Regularly monitor your heart function and consult your cardiologist for any necessary adjustments.
