My Breaking Point
I have written posts on here and hopefully this helps me because I am at my breaking point. In November of 2015, my chest and left arm went numb and I thought I was having a heart attack. It turns out it was nothing. However, over the last 2 months I have been to the ER 5 times, have 7 to 8 EKG's,

Cholesterol goes up heart disease goes down
Just in case you haven't seen it, a really good blog from Dr Malcolm Kendrick: As readers of this blog will know well, I do not believe that cholesterol levels have anything to do with heart disease, which would more accurately called coronary artery disease (CAD) or coronary heart disease (CHD). This

Rivaroxaban and baby aspirin (75mg)
I have been on rivaroxaban now for ten days. I phoned the docs and asked if I should continue to take my daily baby aspirin that I take due to a heart attack in 2007. He said do not take the aspirin just take the rivaroxaban.due to increased bleeding risk. Saw a different doc at the surgery today and

anxious and highly upset.
My mother just told me she can't take it anymore and might have a stroke or heart attack with the burden on her. its because my brother is re all obese and he misbehaves SO BAD. And my 2 year old brother is following the example of my other brother. I try to tell them but none of them listen to me. And

Another concern
Went to my doctor's the other day to check my cholesterol and was told that I have a high level of triglycerides, which puts me at risk for heart attacks. Anybody also have this? If so, do you have any advice going forward?
