I've been experiencing a lot of stiffness in my chest lately, and sometimes there's this pain that pops up on the left side, right side, or even in the center of my chest. I've had a chest CT, blood tests, and even an abdominal CT and ultrasound, and everything seems to come back normal. It's just really confusing and a bit worrying. What could be causing this if all the tests are normal?

I'm a bit concerned because I recently had an ECG and it turned out normal, but my blood pressure is at 14090. I'm 25 years old and weigh 96 kgs. Does this mean I have high blood pressure, and what can I do to lower it?

I'm trying to figure out what natural ingredients I should include in my daily diet to help control my high cholesterol. My lipid profile isn't looking great, and I'm currently on 10 mg of Zivast. I've also started exercising and making changes to my diet. What can I do diet-wise to improve my situation?
To help control your high cholesterol naturally, in addition to taking Zivast (atorvastatin) 10 mg and exercising, you can include several beneficial ingredients in your daily diet. These include: 1. Soluble Fiber: Found in oats, barley, beans, lentils, fruits (such as apples, pears, and berries), and vegetables. Soluble fiber helps reduce the absorption of cholesterol in your bloodstream. 2. Healthy Fats: Include sources of unsaturated fats like avocados, nuts, seeds, and olive oil. Replace saturated fats found in red meat and full-fat dairy with these healthier options. 3. Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Found in fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, and sardines, as well as in flaxseeds and chia seeds. Omega-3s can help lower triglycerides and improve heart health. 4. Plant Sterols and Stanols: Naturally found in small amounts in fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, cereals, legumes, and vegetable oils. Some fortified foods also contain added plant sterols. 5. Garlic: Has been shown to have cholesterol-lowering properties. Incorporate fresh garlic into your meals. 6. Green Tea: Contains antioxidants that may help lower LDL cholesterol levels. Maintaining a balanced diet with these ingredients, along with your medication and exercise, will support your efforts to manage your cholesterol
