I'm 17 years old and I've recently gotten some blood pressure readings like 13080 and 13081. I'm kind of worried and wondering if these numbers are normal for my age. Would appreciate some insight on this.

These blood pressure readings fall within the prehypertension range for your age group. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes to keep it in a healthy range. You can try to reduce your sodium intake, exercise regularly, maintain a healthy weight, and manage stress. If these measures are not enough to lower your blood pressure, you may need medication. I recommend you to consult with a doctor to discuss further evaluation and treatment options.

I've been dealing with this sharp pain in the upper left side of my chest for about 56 days now, and it's kind of freaking me out. It just hits out of nowhere, especially when I cough or change position in bed. What could this be, and should I be worried?
It sounds like you may be experiencing musculoskeletal chest pain, which can be caused by inflammation of the muscles or tendons in the chest wall. To help relieve the pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) as needed. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area may also help relax the muscles and reduce pain. Make sure to rest and avoid activities that worsen the pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it's important to see a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've been experiencing this off-and-on chest tightness and shortness of breath for several years now. It's like I can't catch my breath sometimes, and I have to take deep breaths to feel okay. I don't have any medical history, and Im not on any meds. I saw a couple of doctors, and they said it might be panic attacks. My ECG came back normal, but it seems to get worse when I lie down. Occasionally, I feel like I need to yawn to fully catch my breath. Could you help me understand what's going on?
