Question

I'm really worried because my cholesterol is high, like 252, and today I've been experiencing this pain in my left arm, shoulder joint, and even in my hands. Could this mean I'm having a heart attack?

Having high cholesterol levels can increase your risk of heart attack, especially when experiencing symptoms like pain in the left arm, shoulder joint, and hands. This could be a sign of a heart-related issue. It is important to seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 81mg to help reduce the risk of blood clot formation.
