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.

View allI'm a bit worried about my blood pressure being 14090. Is that considered high? I've just turned 30, weigh 72 kg, and Im already taking rozavel 10 for dyslipidemia. Should I get on some medication for this, or could lifestyle changes do the trick? I do exercise daily for 20 minutes and eat less outside food and salt. What do you think?

I'm really worried because I started with heart pain, and then the next day, I got this really bad pain in my left upper abdomen. I had an ECG done, and they didn't find anything unusual, and my stomach scan was clear too. But I keep getting these chest pains, mostly at night, and sometimes there's this pain in my shoulder blade that only lasts a few minutes. I'm too scared to tell my parents about all this. Can you tell me what's going on?
based on your symptoms of chest pain, left upper abdominal pain, and shoulder blade pain, along with normal ECG and abdominal scan results, it is important to consider the possibility of acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) as a potential cause of your symptoms. I recommend taking a proton pump inhibitor such as Esomeprazole (brand name Nexium) 40mg once daily before breakfast for at least 2 weeks to see if it helps alleviate your symptoms. Additionally, you can take antacids like Tums as needed for immediate relief of chest pain. It is also important to avoid spicy, fatty, and acidic foods, as well as eating at least 2-3 hours before bedtime to help reduce acid reflux symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm having this tight feeling in the left side of my chest for a while now, and it's making me really uncomfortable. I had an echocardiography and an ECG done, and they both came back normal. Do you think I should get a lung test?
