I'm experiencing some concerning symptoms like chest pain on my left side, shortness of breath, and my blood pressure seems higher than usual. On top of that, I've been dealing with numbness in my leg and arm and noticed some bed sores appearing on my bum. I also have this persistent headache that's been bothering me. Should I be worried about these symptoms, and what could be causing them? Would love your advice on what steps I should take next.

View allI've been noticing this weird pain in the upper left side of my chest, especially when I yawn. It's not constant, but more annoying in the mornings. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing it? Any advice would be appreciated.
The intermittent chest pain in your left upper chest, particularly when yawning, could be related to musculoskeletal issues, such as costochondritis (inflammation of the cartilage connecting ribs to the breastbone) or intercostal muscle strain; however, to rule out cardiac or pulmonary causes, consult a cardiologist or a primary care physician for a thorough evaluation, including a physical exam, electrocardiogram (ECG), and possibly a chest X-ray or stress test.

I'm reviewing my lipid profile report, and I'm a bit concerned. My triglycerides are at 203, total cholesterol is 238, LDL cholesterol is 158, HDL cholesterol is 39, and VLDL is 41. I'm not sure if these numbers are within normal range. I'm trying to manage my weight, which is currently 73kg, because I had some palpitations about four months ago. I'm on a diet now, but I'm worried about these levels. Could you guide me on whether these are normal and how I might improve them?
To improve your lipid profile, you can consider making lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight. To help improve your lipid profile, you can start taking a statin medication like Atorvastatin 20mg. It is important to continue with your diet and exercise regimen to see improvements in your lipid profile over time.

I'm feeling a bit concerned because I was diagnosed with a complete right bundle branch block, but never had any symptoms before. Recently, I've been experiencing insomnia due to palpitations, dizziness, and weakness. Can you help me understand what's happening to me?
