It helps: Having a high HDL is good, and is a positive factor in the risk calculations that doctors use to guide them in choosing the appropriate therapeutic recommendations for you. However, a high HDL by itself will not prevent cancer or heart disease.

Alternobaric vertigo: Another cause for this problem can be unequal clearing of the ears. This can happen if you valsalva when you are congested. One eustachian tube opens, allowing greater pressure to develop in the middle ear on one side. The difference in pressure between the two middle ears "confuses" the inner ear causing severe vertigo and nausea. The condition is known as alternobaric vertigo.

Peyronie's: There are several surgical options, but none of them completely without risk of functional side effects such as erectile dysfunction. However, this condition can sometimes resolve on its own. If the curvature is minor and doesn't really impair your sexual function it may not be worth treating aggressively. Talk to your pcp or a urologist.
