I've been dealing with some issues since recovering from COVID back in April 2021. It's been a while, but about ten days after testing positive, I started feeling fine. However, from May 10th, I've had this chest painit happens especially when I move my upper body or when I'm lying down. There's this tenderness feeling right in the center and around my chest. I've been taking CCM tablets twice a day for a month now. I've done all sorts of tests like chest X-ray, ECG, chest CT scan, CBC, CRP, and D-dimer, and everything's come back normal. But despite all that, I'm still not getting good, deep sleep. Could you please offer some advice on what might be going on? I'm really looking for some guidance.

I'm Priyanka, and I'm a bit concerned about my health. My TMT test showed inconclusive results regarding ischemia. I'm also looking at my lipid profile, which shows total cholesterol at 172, triglycerides at 172, HDL at 42, and LDL at 95.5. Could you help me understand what these numbers mean for my health and suggest any steps I should take? I've been feeling unwell, and I'm not sure what to do next.
Hello Priyanka, based on your test results and symptoms, it seems like you may be experiencing some cardiovascular issues. I would recommend starting treatment with a statin medication to help lower your LDL cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. You can start taking Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help improve your lipid profile and reduce the risk of ischaemia. Additionally, you should focus on lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management to further improve your overall cardiovascular health.

I'm trying to understand why my ejection fraction is higher than normal. It's at 82, whereas previously it was 70 according to another report. Should I be worried about this change? What could cause such an increase in ejection fraction?
An ejection fraction of 82% is considered higher than normal and may indicate a condition such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In some cases, medications like Metoprolol (Toprol XL) may be prescribed to help lower the heart rate and improve heart function. The dosage will depend on your specific condition and needs.
