How much money you make per year

Thank you for posting. Next week I will get my first eco

Whats the best heart test to take then?

Your body makes cholesterol for a reason. You need it. Every cell in your body needs it

read the cholesterol myth

Helpful info. Thanks. I had a first-time calcium scan: All 0s except a 58 score for my LAD. I’m 66. I’ll have to re-double my health regime.

AI does not even understand finance! Let that sink in😂

I can tell you ❤️‍🔥 your job but thanks for saving people's lives indeed. Sweet cat 🐈 haha.

It's the level of TRIGLYCERIDES that are more important

There is absolutely NO mention of triglycerides being an important marker Also reducing /eliminating your Carbohydrates ( especially sugar)from your diet. This push for statins is nonsense as the overall risk reduction is 4% verses the side effects of statins. Listen to Dr.Rob Cwyes ( Cardiac Dr. ) he will point you in the right direction without statins. This is paid promotion in my view.

According to the risk calculator website my risk is 2.3%, however it didn't ask about Lp(a) which mine is elevated at 53 mg/dl. Since I appear to be low risk and my primary care doc just prescribed a low dose statin in response to my Lp(a) score, I can't get my doc to refer me to a cardiologist given my apparent low risk. I will ask for a coronary artery calcium score but doubt they will authorize.

I've been on it for 19 years 2.5 months a PE I was in the hospital after a surgery. My range is on the lower side. 1.5-1.9.

Is it possible for an img to match into cardiology, pls give some insight

I'm 60, just got my Lp(a) tested and it was 53 mg/dl and general doc (not a cardiologist) is recommending 5mg Rosuvastatin (even though my LDL is 109, HDL 65, total chol 184, trig 50, A1C 5.1). Are there additional tests I should get before considering statin (CRP, APOB..)?

Thank you for sharing Dr. This video is very timely! I’ve had high cholesterol for many years, LDL 160, HD 41, triglycerides 230, age 58,. I’ve delayed taking statins for the usual reasons. However, I’m going to revisit my Dr’s recommendation (Rosuvastatin) and try to get it to a manageable level.

love your content man, i really like that you give solid advice and try and help people. I hope you keep making content and get more views soon

Hello Dr Katz Do you think this test is of any benefit to someone with multiple sclerosis? thank you so much for your help and this video

I am always get palpitations with escaped beats. after stress.

you bringing high yield facts🎉

I can't remember that we have studied this in medical school😂

Good presentation of the main issues around this. There's a lot of conflicting and confusing information out there. I particularly liked the discussion about different doctors giving different recommendations. I've experienced this myself. I tend towards kidney stone development, so lowering oxalates is recommended. "Healthy" diet recommendations include nuts, beans and other foods high in oxalates (quinoa is one of the worst). Finding a path to accommodated both is hard. The Zoe recommendations and intermittent fasting seem right to me and have reduced my A1C and weight. Unfortunately all statins cause big muscle problems for me. If I'm sedentary on statins, no muscle pains. I've I'm physically active I get the pains. Stop the statins and the pain goes away even with physical activity. I've been off of the statins for almost 3 weeks and I feel great. Retest of cholesterol without statins will happen in a couple weeks or so, followed by a meeting with cardiology. Justifying Repatha for insurance will be he next hurdle I'll have to jump over. Thank You. I appreciate your measured presentation and I have subscribed to the channel.

Anyone who refers to LDL Cholesterol as being "bad" is still living in the dark-ages. LDL-C only become "bad" when it is damaged by sugar. When one keeps one's Triglycerides under 0.8mmol/L it is proven that LDL-C is undamaged and, as such, is just going about its excellent work as evolution intended it to do.

I was swayed towards a low carb diet due to A1c being high , it helped me improve all of my health marker. I dont think a Keto diet is a carnivore diet as you infer , but rather a low carb diet which cuts out much of the processed and refined foods that flood the market. Time has proven you cant live on a vegan or vegetarian diet alone it just isnt healthy long run. Another point to be had cooking with olive oil is only safe if you dont cross the smoke point as it becomes just another bad cooking oil, that is if you really believe you have olive oil. Everything in moderation, no artificial ingredients, and take to walking as much as you can.

What about people who have high LDL and High HDL?

Electric blue pants model plis? Pisco, axim, cairo? Medium rigth??

The ESC/EAS guidelines also mention, that coronary arterial calcification can be used to diagnose your risk (p 126-7). Having LDL of more than 200 mg/dl (5mM) since at least 20 years, my general practitioner suggested the initiation of a statin therapy. We agreed to make the decision dependent on the outcome of a heart CT. It turned out, that at the age of 67, my CAC score was well below the 50% percentile of my age group.I kind of expected this result, having a BMI of 27, daily exercise and no cardiovascular risk in the family. Ironically, my attempts to avoid any regular medication was flouted, when I had my first attack of gout 3 years later, despite (high-) normal uric acid levels.

Thank you. Super helpful info. Oddly, my symptoms began with my COVID 60 days ago... and my Doc prescribed a low dose of prednisone. Oops. Which kept me up all night with heart palpitations. I think that's where it began. Doctors still really suck at diagnosing this condition. Been i7-8 level npain for months and all I needed was two Advil? You gotta be kidding me?

I think diet is indivisual specific ,effect of diet depends of how your body is constructed to react and consume and burn that food that you consume....

At 50, and refusing a statin prescription for ldl at 120,with 59 Hdl and 70 triglycerides had a CAC of 0, pcp finally relented and said just keep doing what you're doing.

Best video explanation. I just had one done and Im at 97 percentile. Doctor prescribed cholesterol meds

I’m 53 and got my results today. My score was 55.

actually i am student of pre medical and starting medicine next year so interested in doctor'life so therefore watch your video Sir and want to become cardiologist

God, I love cardiology. this video pumped me up.

I am in highschool and want to become a cardiologist so please wish me luck

The virus lunacy again.

Sir do you earn 600k dollars a year as a cardiologist? Plz reply in yes or no. Thanks a lot.

@marcKatzmd Great Video. I have been hearing how current thinking indicates that Triglycerides are more important than LDL because Triglycerides become the much more dangerous VLDL. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

I’ve just had this I can’t take ibuprofen because I am asthmatic so had to use Codeine

Lol. I thought it was an issue only here in Pakistan. I guess cardiology and pre-op risk assessment is the same all over the world. 😅

Very confident doctor. I have a few questions: What if Crp reduces but Esr remain in 40s? Is a thin film of about 3mm of PE of any significance? Does the patient keep on repeating 2-D echo to see that quantity of fluid is not increasing? If so how often? Any other diagnostic tests? Lastly can the fluid go away in its own ?

While AI can help physicians with a variety of activities, it cannot take the place of the human touch and knowledge that are necessary to deliver high-quality medical care.

Disagree. After I have seen many other cardiologists speak.

Sir i am bit little confuse I've heard surgeons are physicians to so when a cardiac surgeon can do surgery and prescribe medicine than why are cardiologist made , like when a general surgeon can do surgery and gives medicine for general disease than why internal medicine doctors are made

Best analysis on UA-cam.

Cardiology ❤️

Elevated homocysteine and inflammation play as much or more role in heart attack and stroke. Cut out seed oils and eat more animal fat including butter and ghee.

My calcium score is 4500

Very helpful!!!!
