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'm dealing with some chest congestion and mild pain, and my doctor has put me on Rosuvas for high cholesterol and Metaprolol for blood pressure. They've also prescribed Myospaz for the pain if I need it. Is it safe to take Myospaz alongside Metaprolol and Rosuvas?
Yes, you can take myospaz along with metaprolol and Rosuvas. Myospaz contains paracetamol and dicyclomine which can help relieve pain and discomfort. The usual dosage for myospaz is 1-2 tablets every 6-8 hours as needed for pain. Just make sure to follow the recommended dosage and frequency as advised by your doctor.

I'm not diabetic, but I've noticed my cholesterol levels seem a bit off. My LDL is at 119, HDL is 36, VLDL is 58, triglycerides are 288, and my total cholesterol is 212. The total cholesterol to HDL ratio is 6.06, and the LDL to HDL ratio is 3.41. Could you suggest some ways to boost my HDL and bring down my VLDL and triglyceride levels? I'm a bit concerned and would appreciate any advice you have.
To increase HDL and lower VLDL and triglycerides, consider the following lifestyle changes and dietary modifications: exercise regularly (aim for 150 minutesweek of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise); lose weight if overweight; quit smoking; reduce saturated and trans fats intake; increase omega-3 fatty acids (found in fatty fish, flaxseeds, and walnuts); consume more soluble fiber (found in oats, barley, fruits, and vegetables); and limit dietary cholesterol and added sugars;
