I'm experiencing some worrying symptoms like left side chest pain and vomiting. I'm not feeling hungry and sometimes my heart starts beating really fast all of a sudden. It's even affecting my sleep. I've already had an echo and TMT done, and they didn't show anything wrong, but I'm still concerned. Could this be something serious? What should I do next?

View allI recently got a full body checkup and I'm a bit concerned about my cholesterol levels. Some of them are in the normal range, but others are close to being high. At 26, should I be worried about this? Is it a major concern for someone my age?
"Based on your full body checkup report, it is important to monitor your cholesterol levels closely, especially at the age of 26. To help manage your cholesterol levels, you can consider taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 10mg to 20mg daily. Additionally, incorporating lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet and regular exercise can also be beneficial in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels."

I'm a bit confused about my blood pressure readings. When I'm lying down, my BP usually stays under 12080. But when I sit up, it changes to somewhere between 13095 and 140100. I'm currently taking Telma, and I'm just wondering if these lying-down readings are reliable or if I should focus on the sitting-up ones. Do you think I need to change my dose, or does it seem like my blood pressure is under control based on the lying-down numbers?
It is important to monitor your blood pressure in different positions to get a comprehensive view of your overall blood pressure control. In your case, it seems like your blood pressure is well controlled when lying down but slightly elevated when sitting up. This could indicate that your current dose of Telma may not be fully controlling your blood pressure in all positions. I would recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider to consider adjusting your Telma dosage or exploring other treatment options to ensure that your blood pressure remains within a healthy range in all positions.

I'm trying to understand what "mild left axis deviation" means since it's shown up in my ECG results. I'm feeling a bit worried and unsure about what this indicates. Is there a specific medicine or treatment I should consider? Any advice or insights would be really helpful.
Mild left axis deviation on an ECG indicates a slight deviation in the electrical activity of the heart towards the left side. This can be a normal variant for some individuals, but it can also be associated with certain heart conditions. It is important to correlate this finding with your overall health status and any symptoms you may be experiencing. For mild left axis deviation without any underlying heart condition or symptoms, no specific medication may be necessary. However, if there are other heart issues present, your doctor may prescribe medications such as **Metoprolol** at a dosage of 25-100mg per day to help manage the condition and reduce the risk of complications. Always follow your doctor's recommendations and attend regular follow-up appointments to monitor your heart health.
