I've been having this pain on the left side of my chest, and I found out that my ESR is 25. My vitamin D3 level is really low at 3.75. I got a CT scan of my lungs, and everything came back normal. I'm curious if taking vitamin D3 supplements will help with this chest pain, or do you think I should see a cardiologist about it?

View allI sometimes feel like there's an extra heartbeat in my chest, especially when I bend down. Could this be related to my mild tricuspid regurgitation? I'm really worried about it.
Yes, palpitations can be related to mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR). To help manage your symptoms, you can take a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol at a dosage of 25-50mg once daily. This can help regulate your heart rate and reduce the sensation of extra heartbeats. Remember to consult your doctor for proper evaluation and management.

I've been wondering if cold weather can affect blood pressure. I've noticed that my blood pressure is usually around 12080 to 13084 in the summer, but during the winter, it seems to go up to 13384 and sometimes even 13587. Is that something to be concerned about or is it normal for it to fluctuate with the seasons? Would really appreciate some insight.
Yes, cold weather can affect blood pressure. In colder temperatures, blood vessels tend to constrict in order to conserve heat and maintain body temperature, which can lead to an increase in blood pressure. This is why blood pressure tends to be higher in the winter and lower in the summer. To help manage your blood pressure during the winter, you can consider taking medications like Amlodipine (5mg) or Lisinopril (10mg) as prescribed by your doctor. Additionally, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, a balanced diet, and stress management techniques can also help regulate your blood pressure levels throughout the year.
