What happens if my Lipoproteina levels are high? I've heard there's no complete cure, and it's hard to control. Is it true that those diagnosed with high levels are at a higher risk?

I've noticed my heart rate drops to around 41-45 when I'm sleeping, and I'm a bit worried about it. I'm currently taking Ivabradine, 5mg twice a day. During the day, my heart rate is generally between 85-90, and it goes up to 105-110 while I'm walking. I started on Ivabradine because my heart rate would hit 150 with just minimal exertion. Is it normal for my heart rate to drop like that while I'm asleep, or should I be concerned?
A heart rate dropping to 41-45 while sleeping can be concerning, especially if you are already on Ivabradine for high heart rate during the day. Since Ivabradine is a medication that helps lower heart rate, it is important to monitor your heart rate closely. In your case, since your heart rate during the day is around 85-90 and 105-110 while walking after taking Ivabradine, it seems like the medication is working to lower your heart rate effectively. However, a heart rate dropping significantly during sleep may warrant further evaluation. I recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider to determine if any adjustments to your medication dosage or timing are needed. It's important to ensure that your heart rate remains within a safe range even during sleep.

I just found out that my high sensitive CRP levels are elevated, and my triglycerides are up as well. I'm also dealing with diabetes. Should I be worried about the risk of heart issues since I haven't had any so far?
High sensitive CRP, elevated triglycerides, and diabetes are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. It is important to manage these conditions to prevent future heart problems. To help lower your high sensitive CRP and triglyceride levels, as well as manage your diabetes, you can take medications like Atorvastatin for cholesterol, Metformin for diabetes, and Aspirin for cardiovascular protection. It is also important to follow a healthy diet, exercise regularly, and monitor your blood sugar levels closely. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is essential to monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan if needed.
