I'm 25, and I've been dealing with this on-and-off pain in my left arm for about 15-20 days now. It was sharp and shooting at first, so I thought it might be gastritis, but now the pain's more dull and constant. Lately, for about a week, I've been feeling breathless sometimes, and there's some nausea too. I get tired pretty quick and now there's this annoying discomfort in my upper back. Should I be looking into any specific tests or is there something else I should be considering?

View allI've just got my test results and it says my triglycerides are at 186 mgdL. I'm a bit worried about whether this is within the normal range or not. Also, the report shows my LDL is 99.80. Could you help me understand what these numbers mean for my health?
based on your triglyceride level of 186 mgdl, it is considered borderline high. The normal range for triglycerides is typically less than 150 mgdl. As for your LDL level of 99.80, it is within the optimal range. To help lower your triglyceride levels, you can consider taking Atorvastatin 10mg once daily. It is important to also follow a healthy diet and lifestyle to manage your lipid levels effectively.

So, it's been almost 2 months now since I had COVID, and I've been dealing with some chest pain and this weird pulling sensation in my left hand and neck for the past month. I'm struggling with sleep too. I saw a doctor and had like 5 ECGs, all normal, but the pain's not really going away. It's scaring me a lot. The chest pain has reduced a bit, but now there's this pulling at my elbow and pain in my left shoulder. I had a troponin test which was at 0.04 and my blood sugar's normal too. What could this be? Is it still related to COVID?
It sounds like you are experiencing persistent chest pain, left hand pulling, and neck pain following a COVID infection. Since your ECG results have been normal and your blood tests are also normal, it is important to address your symptoms. The symptoms you are describing could be related to musculoskeletal issues or nerve irritation. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a muscle relaxant such as **Tizanidine** 2mg twice daily to help with the pulling sensation in your left hand and shoulder pain. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever such as **Ibuprofen** 400mg three times a day after meals to help with the chest pain and neck pain. It is also important to practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or meditation to help reduce your fear and anxiety. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your MD medicine doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried because I fainted like 45 times yesterday while I was with my boyfriend. It all started when I suddenly passed out while hugging and kissing him. He managed to wake me up each time and even gave me some chocolate to eat, but I kept fainting again after a few minutes. The whole time, he was holding me and trying to calm me down. I hadn't eaten anything since last night, except for a cup of milk then and another one this morning. Could this be because I didn't eat enough, or is it something more serious?
You experienced repeated fainting spells (syncope) while hugging and kissing your boyfriend. Possible causes: Medical Conditions 1. Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar): Lack of food intake, especially after milk consumption. 2. Dehydration: Insufficient fluid intake. 3. Anxiety or stress: Emotional distress. 4. Cardiovascular issues: Rare, but possible
