I'm experiencing some pinching and squeezing chest pains, and my heart rate seems to jump between 80 and 120 with some palpitations. The pain tends to be worse in the afternoons after I eat, but it also happens in the evenings, especially when I start thinking about stuff, even small thoughts make my heart rate go up but it does slow down after I get myself to calm down. I've done multiple ECGs, TM tests, and echoes, and they've all been normal so far. There is sinus tachycardia, though. I don't smoke or drink, but I'm dealing with a lot of anxiety and worry. My cholesterol is at 240 and my blood pressure is around 13090. My sugar levels are almost normal and I weigh 70 kgs with a 5.5 height. I follow a light veg South rice diet and don't eat meat. What's causing this chest pain and geyser-like hot sensation? It's really unsettling and causing me some social anxiety. I'm not married and I don't really have much of a social life. What should I do?

View allI'm trying to figure out what natural ingredients I should include in my daily diet to help control my high cholesterol. My lipid profile isn't looking great, and I'm currently on 10 mg of Zivast. I've also started exercising and making changes to my diet. What can I do diet-wise to improve my situation?
To help control your high cholesterol naturally, in addition to taking Zivast (atorvastatin) 10 mg and exercising, you can include several beneficial ingredients in your daily diet. These include: 1. Soluble Fiber: Found in oats, barley, beans, lentils, fruits (such as apples, pears, and berries), and vegetables. Soluble fiber helps reduce the absorption of cholesterol in your bloodstream. 2. Healthy Fats: Include sources of unsaturated fats like avocados, nuts, seeds, and olive oil. Replace saturated fats found in red meat and full-fat dairy with these healthier options. 3. Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Found in fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, and sardines, as well as in flaxseeds and chia seeds. Omega-3s can help lower triglycerides and improve heart health. 4. Plant Sterols and Stanols: Naturally found in small amounts in fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, cereals, legumes, and vegetable oils. Some fortified foods also contain added plant sterols. 5. Garlic: Has been shown to have cholesterol-lowering properties. Incorporate fresh garlic into your meals. 6. Green Tea: Contains antioxidants that may help lower LDL cholesterol levels. Maintaining a balanced diet with these ingredients, along with your medication and exercise, will support your efforts to manage your cholesterol

I'm wondering if taking Electral powder could lead to a rise in blood pressure. Is it safe for someone with high BP or diabetes to have? Could you please clarify this for me?
Electral powder is generally safe for high blood pressure and diabetic patients to take, as it is a balanced oral rehydration solution that helps in restoring electrolyte balance in the body. However, it is always recommended to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication or supplement.

I'm a bit concerned because I recently had an ECG and it turned out normal, but my blood pressure is at 14090. I'm 25 years old and weigh 96 kgs. Does this mean I have high blood pressure, and what can I do to lower it?
