I've been experiencing some strong side effects like muscle pain, dizziness, and shaky hands and legs from taking Rozavel and Pivasta. Are there any realistic alternatives or supplements in the Indian market that could lower my LDL by around 15-20% without serious side effects? I've heard about things like Coeveleselam, but I'd love to know more.

I've been experiencing this odd pin-pricking sensation on the left side of my chest for the past couple of days. It's happening now and then, not consistently. I remember having similar pain about three years ago, but it went away on its own back then. Should I be worried this time? What might be causing this sensation?
pin-pricking sensation in the left side of the chest can be unsettling. Given that you've experienced similar pain 3 years ago, which resolved on its own, it's essential to take this incident seriously and explore possible explanations. _Possible Causes_ 1. _Costochondritis_: Inflammation of the cartilage that connects the ribs to the breastbone can cause sharp, stabbing pains. 2. _Musculoskeletal issues_: Strained or pulled muscles in the chest wall can lead to pin-pricking sensations. 3. _Gastrointestinal issues_: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), acid reflux, or stomach ulcers can cause chest pain. 4. _Cardiovascular concerns_: Although less likely, it's essential to rule out cardiovascular issues, such as angina or pericarditis. _What to Do Next_ 1. _Consult a doctor_: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician to discuss your symptoms. 2. _Monitor your symptoms_: Keep a journal to track when the pin-pricking sensation occurs, how long it lasts, and any potential triggers. 3. _Avoid heavy lifting or strenuous activities_: Until you've consulted with your doctor, avoid any activities that may exacerbate the discomfort. If you experience any of the following, seek immediate medical attention: - Severe chest pain or pressure - Difficulty breathing - Dizziness or fainting - Pain radiating to your arms, back, or jaw

I've been dealing with this sharp pain in the upper left side of my chest for about 56 days now, and it's kind of freaking me out. It just hits out of nowhere, especially when I cough or change position in bed. What could this be, and should I be worried?
It sounds like you may be experiencing musculoskeletal chest pain, which can be caused by inflammation of the muscles or tendons in the chest wall. To help relieve the pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) as needed. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area may also help relax the muscles and reduce pain. Make sure to rest and avoid activities that worsen the pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it's important to see a doctor for further evaluation and management.
