I'm really worried because I've heard that heart attack symptoms in women can be different from what men experience. Can you explain what signs I should be looking out for? And how can I tell if chest pain is from a heart attack or just something else? Its been on my mind lately, and I'd love some clarity.

View allI've just checked my blood pressure at home and got a reading of 13784 while standing. I took the measurement suddenly without resting, and then it read 12780 after two minutes, and after another two minutes, it dropped to 11274. Is this normal? Should I be worried about these quick changes?
Blood pressure can fluctuate throughout the day due to various factors such as stress, physical activity, and even the time of day. However, the readings you provided are within the normal range. A blood pressure of 13784, 12780, and 11274 are all considered normal blood pressure readings. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and if you have any concerns, consult with your healthcare provider.

I've been noticing this weird pain in the upper left side of my chest, especially when I yawn. It's not constant, but more annoying in the mornings. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing it? Any advice would be appreciated.
The intermittent chest pain in your left upper chest, particularly when yawning, could be related to musculoskeletal issues, such as costochondritis (inflammation of the cartilage connecting ribs to the breastbone) or intercostal muscle strain; however, to rule out cardiac or pulmonary causes, consult a cardiologist or a primary care physician for a thorough evaluation, including a physical exam, electrocardiogram (ECG), and possibly a chest X-ray or stress test.
