Question

I'm having some mild shortness of breath along with chest tightness and a bit of back pain that spreads to my neck. I've done tests like ECG, echo, TMT, chest X-ray, diabetes checks, and PFT, and all came back normal, but my cholesterol was high. I'm taking Rosuvas for that and also Amlodipine for high blood pressure. My weight is 110 kg, and my BP is 14090. Should I be getting any more tests or changing my meds? I'm also in the process of trying to lose weight. What do you think?

Question

I'm worried about my health because my total cholesterol level is 162 mgdL. Could this mean I might have a blocked artery? I've been experiencing a lot of strange symptoms like pressure in my brain, shooting pains in my arms and legs, occasional chest pain, and muscle tremors. These pains start suddenly and go away after about a minute. What could be causing these symptoms?

Question

Hey, I accidentally took two MetpureXL25 tablets this morning instead of just one. Is that something I need to worry about or should I just continue with my day as usual?

Question

I had a TMT test in February 2019 and an Echo in April 2020, and both were normal, but I'm still experiencing a lot of symptoms. I've been having chest discomfort that moves to my throat and arm for over two years now. I get ECGs done twice every month since 2019, and they only show sinus tachycardia. How long should I trust the normal TMT results? Since it's not COVID causing this, I keep wondering if I should repeat the TMT and Echo. What do you think?
