I'm feeling a lot of pain in the upper muscles of my chest, even though I can breathe normally. It feels like there's pressure on my chest. I recently had a chest X-ray, and the doctor said it was normal. I've got acidity, and I'm not sure if that's what's causing this much pain. It sometimes feels like I might fall over, but my blood pressure and sugar levels are normal. I'm really anxious about my health. I've already taken all the reports; CT scan for my brain was normal, and liver, kidney, and thyroid are also fine. I even checked cardio and took a TMT which came back negative. But both the right and left chest muscles are still hurting. What should I do?

View allI'm looking over my cholesterol results and I'm trying to figure out what they mean. My total cholesterol is 198mg, triglycerides are at 236mg, HDL cholesterol is 40mg, non-HDL cholesterol is 158mg, and my LDL cholesterol is 130mg. Plus, the atherosclerosis index is 5. Does this report look alright, or is there something off? If there's a problem, should I be thinking about medication?
Based on these values, your cholesterol levels are not optimal. To improve your cholesterol levels, you can make lifestyle changes such as adopting a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking. If lifestyle changes alone are not sufficient, medication may be prescribed by a healthcare provider. In your case, considering your lipid profile, a statin medication such as Atorvastatin (Lipitor) may be recommended. The usual starting dose for Atorvastatin is 10-20mg once daily. However, the specific medication and dosage should be determined by a healthcare provider after a thorough evaluation.

I'm having some discomfort on my left side, and I've already done an ECG and ECHO 2D, both of which came back normal. My SPO2 level is also above 95. Can anyone help me figure out what might be going on?
It's good that your ECG and ECHO-2D reports are normal and your SPO2 level is above 95. The discomfort on your left side could be due to musculoskeletal issues or gastrointestinal problems. You can try taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen (Tylenol) for the discomfort. If it's related to gas or indigestion, you can take an antacid like ranitidine (Zantac) before meals. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage for these medications. If the discomfort persists or worsens, it's best to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm feeling a tickling sensation in my chest and what's kind of like fluttering, which makes me anxious and sad. It's also strange because I get this mild headache only at night. Any idea what might be going on?
To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter medication such as paracetamol for the headache. Additionally, you can consider using anti-anxiety medication such as lorazepam at a low dose to help with the feelings of anxiety and sadness. It is important to consult with a doctor before starting any new medication.
