I'm really worried because I've been having this pain on the left side of my chest for a few months now. I'm asthmatic but I'm not having any trouble breathing or coughing. I saw a heart doctor and he did an echo, which came back normal, and the chest X-ray was normal too. The pain is kind of between my lower ribs up to the upper side of my chest, and sometimes it goes to my back. I'm really scared about what it could be. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

View allI'm a bit concerned about my blood pressure. It's usually around 13584 or sometimes 14084, but it never goes beyond 140. My doctor prescribed me torsemide for a short periodonly 20 tabletsand said it's mainly because of anxiety. Is this normal? Should I be worried about taking the torsemide, or is it safe to just stop after finishing the tablets like my doctor suggested?
A blood pressure reading of 13584 or 14084 is slightly elevated but not alarming. Your doctor prescribed torsemide for a short period to manage fluid retention, likely linked to anxiety. It's normal in such cases, but it's important to follow up if you continue to feel concerned.

I'm dealing with this left-side chest pain for the past 4 months, and it's starting to worry me. I saw a doctor who asked me to get an ECG, an X-ray, and a lipid profile. The ECG and X-ray came back normal, but my cholesterol and triglycerides were high. The meds he gave me brought those levels down within 2 months, but the chest pain just won't go away completely. I can still play and get my work done, but the pain shows up sometimes at night or when I'm at my desk. Any thoughts on what might be going on?
It's good that your cholesterol and triglyceride levels are normal now. Since your chest pain persists, it's important to consider other possible causes. Given your history of high cholesterol and chest pain, it's important to rule out any cardiac issues. I recommend discussing with your doctor the possibility of angina or other heart-related conditions. In the meantime, you can try taking a medication like **Ranitidine** 150mg twice a day to see if it helps with the chest pain, as it could be related to acid reflux. However, it's crucial to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
