The side effects of statin are minimal as compared to the the benefits of continuing the medicines. A good physician can explain you the danger signs to watch out for probable symptoms of side effects and should also monitor you periodically clinically and laboratory investigation wise for side effects. Alternative medicines can be prescribed by physician if you develop side effects. However in absence of side effects it is advisable to continue statins if medically indicated

Relationship

Hi I am 34 year old male and want to settle down but also in doubt that the marriage will take my independence. I started looking for bride with arrange marriage option. I am taking to a girl for last 3-4 months 2 time a week. I never had any serious relationship before and don't know what exactly to lookout in marriage. The girl I am seeing has average looks and physique but she okay with conversation and little shy and majority of the conversation I have only started. Her weight or BMI is very low around 19 and my BMI is overweight above 26. There is different in 45-50 kgs in weight. Am I working too much about physical appearance and should I interact with other prospects also. I have meet with her family along with my parent two times and little worried that more meeting will led to frustration if marriage didn't materialize. I have also left my current job and taking some break before joining new one. Will this career break will impact my marriage prospects. Also sometimes I feel that I may have set my standards very high as I am well educated from good institute and I can explore many options before choosing one. Is this leading me to non commitment as I may find some fault to not commit to marriage.

Ans: too many questions...in summary - education and being in a relationship are 2 different things - for a detailed conversation you may google me and schedule an interaction to discuss.

My daughter is has given exam neet 2025 Which is the best institute to prepare neet 2026.

Ans: HI,
There are many institutes available on both online and offline platforms, depending on the city. It's difficult to provide a definitive answer regarding quality. Additionally, I am not supposed to disclose specific information openly.

However, before joining any institute, make sure to inquire whether they segregate groups based on performance. If they do, it may not be worthwhile to join that institute. So, be careful when selecting the right institute for your needs.
