I've been dealing with tinnitus and anxiety for about six months now, and this morning when I blew my nose, I noticed these random blood stains in my mucus, and it was really frothy. I've also been feeling this weird gurgling sensation in my chest, and occasionally, there's a sharp pain in my left shoulder, but it doesn't last more than a second. My blood pressure was 104 over 70 this morning. I don't have diabetes, but my cholesterol levels are off; it's at 228, with HDL at 49 and LDL at 150, and my triglycerides are at 142. I'm getting worried... is this something serious, or is my heart okay?

It is important to address these symptoms promptly. The presence of blood in your mucus, along with chest discomfort and shoulder pain, could indicate potential issues with your heart or respiratory system. Given your cholesterol levels, there may be an increased risk of cardiovascular problems. I recommend seeking immediate medical attention. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 81mg for potential heart-related symptoms. Please consult a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management.

I'm really worried because for the past week I've been experiencing heaviness in my chest, my left arm feels strange, and I've even had some episodes where I've felt unconscious and really anxious. It's getting to the point where I can't sleep at night. Do you think there's something serious going on, and what should I do about it?

Question

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been taking ecosprin AV but he's been having some abdomen pain, so the doctor suggested a USG, and they also mentioned theyll do a TMT test. In the meantime, they've switched his medication from ecosprin AV to a mix of Telmisartan and Metaprolol Succinate until they can do the TMT test. Unfortunately, we couldn't get the USG and TMT tests done today. Is it safe for him to stop taking ecosprin AV for now?
