View allI'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.

Hey, I've been having this left chest pain for a year now. I've done a TMT test and it came back negative. In the past year, I've had a 2D echo done 3 times and about 40 ECGs, all normal, but the pain is still there on the left side of my chest. Even though the TMT was negative, the pain persists, and I'm really worried about heart issues. My cholesterol levels are fine, sugar levels are normal, but my BP is 16090. My liver, kidney, and urine tests are also normal. I'm really anxious, especially with all the scary news I see on TV and social media. I've attached the most recent ECG can you please check if there's anything wrong? What should be my next step?
Since your TMT test was negative and your ECGs have been normal, it's good to hear that your cholesterol, sugar levels, blood pressure, liver function, urine test, and renal test are all normal. Given your concerns and persistent symptoms, the next step would be to consider a stress echocardiogram to further evaluate your heart's function under stress conditions. This test can provide more detailed information compared to a standard 2D echo. Additionally, considering your fear and anxiety, it may be helpful to consult with a cardiologist for a more comprehensive evaluation and to address your worries. It's important to address both the physical and emotional aspects of your health.

I'm a bit confused and concerned because I just got an EKG done, and the results say "borderline ECG." What exactly does that mean? Should I be worried about this?
Borderline ECG means that the results of your EKG are not definitively normal or abnormal. It suggests that there may be slight abnormalities in the electrical activity of your heart, but it is not conclusive. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring.
