I'm feeling really concerned because for the last 23 days I've been having this chest pain on the left side. It spreads to my left hand and even down to my wrist. It feels like my chest is being squeezed, and at times it's like someone's poking me with a pin. The pain sometimes goes to my back too. About six months ago, I had this pain that felt like a mild heart attack. Do you think this could be something serious?

Chest pain, especially when radiating to the arm and back, could be a sign of a heart issue. Given your past experience, I strongly recommend that you seek immediate medical evaluation to rule out any serious heart conditions.

Question

I'm experiencing some concerning symptoms like chest pain on my left side, shortness of breath, and my blood pressure seems higher than usual. On top of that, I've been dealing with numbness in my leg and arm and noticed some bed sores appearing on my bum. I also have this persistent headache that's been bothering me. Should I be worried about these symptoms, and what could be causing them? Would love your advice on what steps I should take next.

Question

I'm experiencing this kind of strong pounding pulse throughout my body. It's not really fast, just really strong. I can even see it in my neck when I look in the mirror and I feel it in my fingers and hands when I touch something. I also notice a visible pulse in my stomach and when I'm lying down, my head kind of bobs up and down with my pulse. Right now, even as I'm sitting in bed with my laptop, the pulse is shaking my laptop. This began shortly after I had some issues with anxiety and possible heart problems, but I've been to the hospital multiple times and they've ruled out any heart issues. It often gets triggered after heavy meals and this has been happening for about a year now. What could be causing this?

Question

I'm taking Supradyn multivitamins, and I've been having some chest pain and noticing my hair getting thinner. Do you think I should stop taking these tablets?
