I've been having some weird symptoms lately. A few days ago, I woke up with this chest pain and it kinda hurt when I breathed. My inhaler helped a bit, but then yesterday, my blood pressure reading at the dentist was 15074, which is way higher than my usual 120-127 for the systolic part. I'm trying to figure out if I should just make an appointment with my GP or if it's serious enough to hit up urgent care or the ER. What do you think?

View allI'm dealing with this constant dull ache right in the center of my chest since last night. It flared up and burned for a bit, got worse, then eased up again. It's kinda odd because only this area hurts, and nowhere else. There's no pressure or tightness, so my chest feels pretty free otherwise. At one point, the pain moved up to my upper abdomen but then came back to the center. It's like a small spot of pain, like the size of a dot or maybe a little bigger. Should I be worried about this or is it nothing urgent?
This type of chest pain that shifts and is described as a burning sensation can sometimes be related to acid reflux or heartburn. I recommend taking an over-the-counter antacid like Tums or Maalox to help with the burning sensation. Additionally, you can try avoiding spicy or acidic foods that may trigger the discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, it's important to seek medical attention for further evaluation.

I'm worried about a high troponin level of 22.4. Can this be treated with medication, or does it mean I need to be admitted or go through some kind of procedure?
