View allI'm a 34-year-old who doesn't smoke or drink, and I've recently found out my triglycerides level is at 367. My doctor suggested I start taking Tonact TG, but I'm worried if this medication might cause my blood sugar levels to rise. Can you let me know if I should be concerned about this?
Tonact TG contains Atorvastatin and Fenofibrate which are commonly used to lower triglyceride levels. Atorvastatin may slightly increase blood sugar levels in some individuals, but this effect is usually minimal. It is important to monitor your blood sugar levels regularly while taking Tonact TG. The usual dosage for Tonact TG is 1 tablet once daily, preferably at night. Make sure to follow your doctor's instructions and maintain a healthy lifestyle to manage your triglyceride levels effectively.

When I lie down and then get up to walk, I experience a heavy feeling or difficulty in breathing for about 2 to 3 minutes. I also notice a heaviness in my upper abdomen during this time. After those few minutes, I feel normal again. I've had an X-ray, CT scan, ECG, and a 2D echo, and all the results came back normal. Should I be worried about this, or am I just overthinking it?

I'm a bit concerned because after I did some moderate exercise, like walking uphill and climbing steps, my heart rate hit about 151 BPM. Now, it's been two hours, and its still around 113 BPM. I used my pocket ECG device, Sanketlife 2.0, to check, and it says I have Sinus Tachycardia. Should I be worried about this? How long will it typically take for my heart rhythm to return to a normal sinus rhythm?
Sinus tachycardia after exercise is common, but it usually returns to a normal resting rate (typically 60-100 BPM) within a few minutes to an hour after stopping the activity. If your HR remains elevated for an extended period or if you experience other symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or palpitations, it is important to seek medical evaluation promptly.
