My triglycerides are 160, while other reports are normal, and my blood pressure is usually low, around 90 over 70, with occasional headaches. Do I need any treatment or further heart tests?
A triglyceride level of 160 is only slightly high and usually does not require medication if the rest of your reports are normal. You can control it with simple steps like reducing sugar and fried food, staying active, maintaining a healthy weight, and limiting alcohol if you take it. Your low blood pressure, around 90/70, may be normal for some people, but it can cause occasional headaches, so keep well hydrated and do not skip meals. At this stage, regular follow-up and lifestyle care are usually enough, and further heart tests are not needed unless you have other symptoms or risk factors.
