Female | 24

I am a 24 Female. Weighs 60kg and 171cm tall. Yesterday my medical checkup report came out. My glucose level is 3.9. everything else is good except my cholesterol level is at 6.4. I don't overeat, sometimes skip my meals. I don't drink sugary drinks. I know my eating habit isn't that bad but was kind of shocked about my cholesterol level. Both of my parents have high cholesterol level but was only diagnosed in their 40s. Can i know what is wrong and how should i handle this?

Answered on 22nd Mar '23

A cholesterol level of 6.5 mmol/L is considered very high.

Your doctor will also look at ratios of your good and bad cholesterol and whether you have any risk factors of heart disease. Cholesterol is a fat produced by the cells in the body and obtained from animal-based foods.

The first step in reducing your cholesterol is to maintain a healthy, balanced diet. It's important to keep your diet low in fatty food.

You can swap food containing saturated fat for fruit, vegetables and wholegrain cereals. This will also help prevent high cholesterol from returning.

Other lifestyle changes, such as taking regular exercise and giving up smoking, can also make a big difference in helping to lower your cholesterol.

If these measures don't reduce your cholesterol and you continue to have a high risk of developing heart disease, your GP may prescribe a cholesterol-lowering medication, such as statins.

Your doctor will take into account the risk of any side effects from statins. The benefit of lowering your cholesterol must outweigh any risks.

Tuberculosis maningitis with hiv

Answered on 3rd Mar '23

Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) in HIV-infected individuals


HIV-infected individuals are at increased risk for all forms of extrapulmonary tuberculosis, including tuberculous meningitis. This risk is increased at more advanced levels of immunosuppression. The time interval between onset of symptoms and presentation to medical care may vary widely, and consequently individuals may present with acute or chronic meningitis. The clinical presentation of tuberculous meningitis in HIV-infected individuals is more likely to include an altered level of consciousness, cranial imaging is more likely to show cerebral infarctions, and the yield of culture of cerebrospinal fluid may also be greater. Given that delayed initiation of therapy is a strong predictor of mortality in cases of tuberculous meningitis, clinicians must consider tuberculosis in the differential diagnosis of the HIV-infected individual with acute or chronic lymphocytic meningitis. Additional treatment considerations for HIV-infected individuals include the timing of initiation of antiretroviral therapy, the potential for drug-drug interactions, and the role of adjunctive corticosteroid therapy.

Hi, how are you doing. My name is Zabeeda. I am 38 years old. I am from Guyana. I am having a shrinking cerebellum and the symptoms feelings is killing me. Dr said that balance feelings will go away. Don't know. Please tell me.

Answered on 22nd Feb '23

Cerebellum Shrinking

Cerebellar degeneration is a disorder that affects nerves in the back of your brain. It can lead to balance issues or difficulty with speech and eyesight. Cerebellar degeneration can be the result of several health conditions like alcohol use disorder or cancer.

There isn't a cure for cerebellar degeneration. Treatment usually depends on the underlying cause of your brain dysfunction. However, medications can sometimes help manage certain symptoms, including tremors or problems with walking and dizziness.

In general, life expectancy is shorter than normal for those with Cerebellar Degenerative Ataxia, although many patients live well into their 50s or even their 60s.

Urology problem I have urine pain while peeing and frequent passage of urine in a day

Answered on 22nd Feb '23

Urinary problems: Pain and burning

Urinary problems- Pain when urinating is a sign of genitourinary diseases. They appear in both sexes, but in women it happens more often. This is a consequence of the shorter urethra. With an infrequent recurrence of pain, we usually do not seek to immediately consult a doctor, trying to endure or somehow smooth out the itching and burning with pharmacological agents.

Is amoxicillin good treatment for chlamydia in men?

Answered on 22nd Feb '23

Chlamydia Trachomatis is an infection that is cured by antibiotics. The most commonly recommended antibiotics for chlamydia are doxycycline and azithromycin. Similarly, the CDC also recommends alternative Chlamydia treatment options such as erythromycin, levofloxacin, or ofloxacin. However, that amoxicillin is an antibiotic doesn’t necessarily mean that the drug is effective against chlamydia.

Amoxicillin is not the preferred option for treating chlamydia; however, healthcare providers recommend this drug to cure chlamydia in pregnant people.

My daughter is 28 days old..she was born with 6mm Asd heart defect..how can it be cured?

Answered on 15th Feb '23

Atrial septal defect (ASD)


An atrial septal defect (ASD) is a hole in the heart between the upper chambers (atria). The hole increases the amount of blood that flows through the lungs. The condition is present at birth (congenital heart defect).

Small atrial septal defects might be found by chance and never cause a concern. Others close during infancy or early childhood.

A large, long-term atrial septal defect can damage the heart and lungs. Surgery may be needed to repair an atrial septal defect and to prevent complications.

Many babies born with atrial septal defects have no signs or symptoms. Signs or symptoms can begin in adulthood.

Atrial septal defect signs and symptoms can include:

  • Shortness of breath, especially when exercising
  • Fatigue
  • Swelling of legs, feet or belly (abdomen)
  • Irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias)
  • Sensation of a rapid, pounding heartbeat (palpitations) or skipped beats
  • Whooshing sound that can be heard through a stethoscope (heart murmur)

When to see a doctor

Serious congenital heart defects, including large atrial septal defects, are often diagnosed before or soon after a child is born.

Contact your health care provider if you or your child has:

  • Shortness of breath
  • Easy tiring, especially after activity
  • Swelling of legs, feet or belly (abdomen)
  • Sensations of a rapid, pounding heartbeat (palpitations) or skipped beats

Hello I had pimples on my vulva, so doctor recommended me to do HSV type 1 and 2 IgM antibody test and my test sample rate is 1.93 which is positive.is it really serious?

Answered on 15th Feb '23

An HSV test with a positive (abnormal) IgG result means that you either have or have had an HSV infection at some point. Talk to your family doctor. While there is no cure for herpes, it hardly ever causes serious health problems.
