I'm still experiencing this pin-pointing chest pain even though my ECG was normal and my cholesterol level dropped from 207 to 140 after some diet changes. I also got a TMT done and it was negative. But now, the pain seems to be spreading to my left hand too. What could be causing this?

"Based on your symptoms and test results, it is possible that you may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain or nerve-related pain rather than a cardiac issue. You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen for the chest and left hand pain. Additionally, you can use a muscle relaxant like Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) to help with any muscle tension contributing to the pain. It is also important to continue following a healthy diet and lifestyle to maintain your cholesterol levels. If the pain persists or worsens, it would be advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management."

I've been dealing with some symptoms for a few months now, and it's starting to worry me. My heart races sometimes, I find myself short of breath, and occasionally my vision gets a bit blurry. I've also noticed a slight lack of balance and more frequent loose stools. I'm a 36-year-old female, 5'7" and 120 lbs. I try to keep active by walking a lot and exercising regularly. I quit smoking a few years back, but I consume more caffeine and sugar than I probably should. Generally, I think I eat pretty well. Should I be concerned about these symptoms? What could be causing them?
Based on your symptoms and medical history, it is important to consider the possibility of an overactive thyroid gland, also known as hyperthyroidism. The symptoms of rapid heart beat, shortness of breath, occasional blurry vision, slight lack of balance, and loose stools can be associated with this condition. I recommend you to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
