I've been having this weird pain, like in my heart and behind it, and it's been slowly moving to my shoulder. Now my mouth is super dry and I'm even feeling some pain near the top part of my left arm, right above my heart. What could this mean? Should I be worried about these symptoms?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a heart attack. It is important to seek immediate medical attention. In the meantime, you can take a tablet of aspirin (325mg) to help thin the blood and reduce the risk of further complications. Call emergency services or go to the nearest hospital as soon as possible for proper evaluation and treatment.

View allI'm wondering if a blood pressure reading of 14090 is considered normal? Also, there's been this regular body pain happening. What kind of checkups would you recommend for that?
Blood Pressure (BP) Value: 14090* This BP value is considered elevated, but not severely high. According to the American Heart Association (AHA), a normal BP value is: - Systolic (top number): Less than 120 mmHg - Diastolic (bottom number): Less than 80 mmHg A BP value of 14090 falls into the category of "elevated blood pressure," which means your doctor may recommend lifestyle changes and monitoring to prevent further increases. *Regular Body Pain* To address regular body pain, your doctor may recommend the following checkups: 1. *Complete Blood Count (CBC)*: To rule out underlying infections or inflammatory conditions. 2. *Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR)*: To measure inflammation in the body. 3. *C-Reactive Protein (CRP) test*: To assess inflammation and potential underlying conditions. 4. *Thyroid Function Tests (TFTs)*: To rule out hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, which can cause body pain. 5. *Vitamin D levels*: To check for deficiencies, which can contribute to body pain. 6. *Imaging tests (e.g., X-rays, ultrasound)*: To rule out underlying musculoskeletal conditions.

My recent CRP levels came back high, and I'm pretty worried about what that means for my health. Is there a chance this could lead to something like a heart attack or even cancer? I'm not sure what steps I should take next. Could you give me some advice on how to handle this?
Elevated CRP levels can indicate inflammation in the body, but it is not specific to any particular condition such as cardiac arrest or cancer. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can consider taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) to help with any discomfort. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging.
