I'm dealing with some slight chest pain and noticed it happens when I'm not breathing fully, like my breath feels kind of incomplete. It's been going on for the past month and sometimes can last the whole day. I'm worried and not sure what's going on. Could you give me some advice on this?

View allI've been keeping an eye on my blood pressure and it was pretty high last year, like 140 over 90, which led to an echo test. They found lvh at 13mm, and lately, my blood pressure has been settling around 128130 over 85. I'm not on any medication right now. Should I be considering starting on blood pressure meds given these details?
Based on your current blood pressure readings and the presence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) on your echo report, it is advisable to start blood pressure medication to help maintain your blood pressure within a healthy range and reduce the strain on your heart. I recommend starting with a medication like Losartan (50mg once daily) to help lower your blood pressure and protect your heart from further damage. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance.

I'm a 29-year-old male and I've just got my blood pressure checked and it's 140100. Honestly, I dont feel any symptoms like having high blood pressure, but I thought I would look into it further. I did a lipid profile test as well, and here are the results: total cholesterol is 244, HDL is 54, LDL is 146, VLDL is 44, and triglycerides are 232. Am I in a position where I should consider starting medication for this? I'm kind of worried and I'd appreciate any advice you can give.
Based on your blood pressure reading and lipid profile results, it is important to take steps to manage your cardiovascular health. With your age and lipid profile results, it is advisable to start medication to help lower your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. I recommend starting a statin medication such as Atorvastatin to help lower your LDL cholesterol levels. Additionally, you can consider starting an antihypertensive medication such as Amlodipine to help manage your blood pressure. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring of your blood pressure and cholesterol levels while on these medications. Making lifestyle changes such as adopting a healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding smoking can also greatly benefit your cardiovascular health.

I've been experiencing some mild chest pain for about a month now. There hasn't been any coughing, fever, or cold symptoms, but the pain is located near my left breast. Occasionally, I also feel pain in my left arm and shoulders. Sometimes I struggle to breathe normally, and it often feels like something's stuck in my throat. What's going on with me?
Ecg and x-ray pa view is advised to the patient.
