Question 5

I'm experiencing some pain in the middle of my chest since last night. I think it might be related to stress and maybe even gastric issues. Should I be considering a heart checkup just to be safe, or is it okay to just monitor it for now?

Accepted Answer

It is important to rule out any potential heart issues, especially if you are experiencing chest pain. However, based on your description and suspicion of gastric-related pain due to work stress, you can start with an over-the-counter antacid like Tums (calcium carbonate) for relief. If the chest pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation and appropriate management.

Question 6

I'm really concerned because my triglycerides level is 512. I'm not experiencing chest pain or anything like that every day, but do you think I should be on any medication for this? Would love to get your advice.

Accepted Answer

With triglyceride levels at 512, which is significantly above the normal range (<150), you should consult a doctor or cardiologist to discuss treatment options, which may include lifestyle modifications (diet, exercise, weight loss) and medications (fibrates, omega-3 fatty acids, or statins) to reduce your risk of heart disease and pancreatitis.
