I'm having this chest pain on the left side about 30 to 40 minutes after falling asleep, and it even comes with a bit of sweating. Once it starts, I can't find a comfortable position to sleep in without it hurting, so I've been sleeping in an easy chair for the past five days. I started taking Tonact TG for my high cholesterol, which is 290. I'm also on Thyronorm 75 and Telmisartan 40. My TSH levels and blood pressure are normal. Should I be worried about this chest pain and what should I do about it?

It sounds like you're experiencing discomfort that could be related to a few different factors, including your cholesterol and medications. Since the pain is persistent and affects your sleep, it's important to follow up with your doctor to rule out any heart-related issues and ensure the medications are working well for you. If the pain persists, consider an evaluation for possible musculoskeletal causes or other conditions that might be contributing.

Question

I'm really concerned about my mom's health. She's 65 and has both blood pressure and sugar issues. She recently had an ECG done, and the report mentions things like Normal sinus rhythm, longitudinal left axis deviation, possible old inferior MI, and some ST depression indicating mild anterolateral and high lateral myocardial ischemia with abnormal T waves. She's currently taking Sartel LN, Revolol XL 50, Plavix 75, Caat 40, Nikoran 5, Diamicron XR 60, and Ziten 20. Can you help me understand what all this means for her and if there's anything specific we should be worried about right now?

Question

I've got high cholesterol and I'm wondering if having 1kg of milk daily is okay or if I should cut back. Can you suggest how much milk would be beneficial for my condition?

Question

I'm really worried because my mom recently had a heart attack and her LVEF is at 25. We have her on Zoryl twice a day to help with her diabetes, and we're planning on getting her blood sugar tested soon to see if it's working. But I'm really concerned about her NTproBNP levels being so high. Is this something that needs another medication to manage? Should I be really worried about the high NTproBNP levels, and does it pose a serious threat to her health right now? Any advice you could give would really help.
