View allI've got a cholesterol overall level of 360, and I'm pretty worried about it. Can you help me figure out some ways to bring it down? I'm really looking to make some changes.
I recommend making lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight. Additionally, you can consider taking a statin medication like Atorvastatin 40mg once daily to help lower your cholesterol levels. Remember to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication."

I'm experiencing this needle-like pain in my chest that comes and goes. Sometimes it's in my arms and hands too. I'm not sure if it's due to stress or something else, but it's been happening for the last 2 to 3 weeks. I've been on TB medication for about 6 months now, and there's also this numbness in my feet. I'm really concerned and need some guidance. I've attached my CECT report. What could be causing these symptoms?
It's important to address chest pain, especially if it is recurrent and accompanied by symptoms like numbness in your feet. Given that you are currently on tuberculosis (TB) medication, some of these medications can have side effects, including peripheral neuropathy, which may explain the numbness in your feet. The needle-like chest pain and discomfort in your arms and hands could be related to several factors, including stress, side effects from your medication, or other medical conditions. I recommend discussing these symptoms with your healthcare provider, who may consider further evaluation such as a detailed physical examination, additional blood tests to check for side effects of TB medications, and possibly an ECG or other cardiac tests to rule out any heart-related issues.
