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?

I'm experiencing mild chest and back pain, and it's been going on for a week now. The pain gets really intense whenever I bend my neck down. Can this be related to a heart problem? Should I be worried?

I'm curious about my health situation. I've been on Amcard for the past 10 years, but this year my blood pressure isn't controlled. I recently did a lipid profile, and while my cholesterol level went down from 210 to 165, my triglycerides have gone up from 135 to 195. I also drink about 200 ml of alcohol every day and have been doing so for the last 30 years. Could this be affecting my test results, and should I be concerned or make some changes?

Alcohol intake can significantly impact triglyceride levels. I recommend reducing your alcohol consumption to help lower your triglyceride levels. In addition, you can discuss with your doctor about adding a medication like Atorvastatin to help lower your triglyceride levels. The usual dosage for Atorvastatin is 10-80 mg per day, depending on your specific needs. Regular monitoring and follow-up with your healthcare provider are essential to manage your blood pressure and lipid levels effectively.
