I've been feeling really worn out and having a hard time sleeping because of my breathing troubles. I recently found out my ejection fraction is at 40. I'm super worried about it and want to know what I can do to feel better and improve my situation. Any advice on how to handle this?

I've been feeling this needle-like pain in my left chest that started a couple of nights ago while I was asleep and it lasted about 10 minutes. Afterward, I started getting these intermittent pin-pricking pains on both sides of my chest. Now I'm even feeling some discomfort in my back and mild pains in my left shoulder and arms, which sometimes shift to the right side. Im already dealing with a breathing problem and recently noticed some chest tightness. I dont feel tired or dizzy, but I do have a stomach ulcer. I'm really worried this could be some kind of heart attack or angina. What should I do?

Neurologist opinion.

I'm a bit concerned because my LDL levels are slightly high. I've attached my recent lab results for you to review. Could you please advise on what steps I should take? Is medication necessary in this case?

Hi Sir, if your LDL levels are slightly high, you can consider taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 10-20 mg once daily. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any medication. Regular exercise and a healthy diet low in saturated fats can also help in managing LDL levels.
