I'm 21 and have been going to the gym regularly for three years now, just using whey protein. I recently got diagnosed with grade 1 diastolic dysfunction on the 15th of this month, and I'm really scared. Is this something serious? Can it be treated or stopped from getting worse? Please let me know as soon as possible.

I'm having this recurring pain in my left hand that comes and goes. I got an ECG, and it came out normal. I had a full body check-up at the end of September, and everything seemed fine, except they said I had a vitamin D and B12 deficiency and low hemoglobin. I'm also feeling this tightness on my left side of the chest, kind of near the shoulder. I've been dealing with acidity since May till August. With all these symptoms, I'm wondering if this could be related to acidity, or should I be worried about a heart problem? I'm currently taking Ambulax and Serlift once a day. What do you think might be going on here?
It sounds like you may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain or nerve-related pain in your left hand, possibly related to the tightness in your chest near the shoulder. Since your ECG is normal and you have a history of acidity, it is less likely to be a heart problem. The pain could be related to the vitamin deficiencies and low hemoglobin levels. To help with the pain and tightness, you can try taking a pain reliever like Tylenol (acetaminophen) as needed. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief cream like Volini gel on the affected area. For your acidity, continue taking Ambulax as prescribed. However, if the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult with a doctor for further evaluation and management.

So, my diastolic pressure is usually in the 85 to 95 range, though it mostly stays below 90, and my systolic is around 115 to 130. I've had an ECG done, and my lipid profile and urine checkup came back fine. But I'm still wondering why my diastolic is sometimes high. I've noticed a light burning sensation on the left side of my chest whenever my blood pressure goes up. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I should do about this?

Bleeding: May 3rd (not as heavy as regular period, lasted 4-5 days) 5. Current date: May 20th (no period yet) Considering your situation: - The bleeding on May 3rd was likely withdrawal bleeding caused by the ECP. - Since you haven't gotten your period yet, there is a small chance of pregnancy.
