I'm a bit worried because about a month ago I started having constant chest pain and it spread to my left shoulder and hand. I got a general checkup and found out my blood pressure was 160100, but my ECG and 2D echo and sugar levels were normal. They did say my triglycerides and uric acid were high, and I have a fatty liver, so I've been on a strict diet for three months, cutting out salt and doing regular walks. After 10 days, my blood pressure dropped to 12080, which I guess is good! My dad and grandpa had heart issues, so I'm a bit concerned if it's hereditary. Right now, Im on Telma 40 and Concor 5mg but since my blood pressure is normal, Im not sure if I should continue with these meds. Also, my left shoulder and chest still hurt. Can you help me figure out what's going on? I'm really confused right now.

I'm having trouble breathing when I lie on my back, and I've been dealing with chest pain. There's no constant cough, but I do cough sometimes, and I haven't had a fever. I've also been experiencing nausea and the urge to vomit, along with shortness of breath. Every now and then, my head spins, and I start sweating and feeling numbness in my body. It's been about 57 days now with the breathing trouble, short breath, and chest painshould I be worried? Is it safe for me to visit a hospital right now?

I'm worried about my pulse oximeter readings. It's been showing my pulse rate between 112 and 120, and my oxygen saturation levels are at 92 to 94. I've noticed my heart beats really fast occasionally over the past month. Considering my age and other health issues, do you think this is something I need to be concerned about?

A pulse rate between 112 and 120 with oxygen saturation of 92-94, especially if you're experiencing a fast heartbeat intermittently, can be concerning, particularly with your existing health conditions. It would be wise to consult your doctor to rule out any underlying issues, as it might indicate a need for further evaluation.
