I've been experiencing headaches lately, so I went to see a doctor. My blood pressure came in at 130100, which is quite different from two years ago when it was usually around 11070. The doctor told me to keep an eye on my BP for the next five days. My blood work was mostly okay, but they did find my CRP levels were at 6 and my sodium was a little low, around 133. I've been feeling tired all day too. What could be going on with me?

I'm working out every day, but I've been having this pain in my left leg for more than 2 days now, and it's been followed by this pain right in the center of my chest. I'm really not sure who I should be seeing for this. Could you guide me on which type of doctor would be best to consult?

I've been feeling a bit under the weather with a cold recently, and I've been on antibiotics for it. When I checked my blood pressure, it was at 160100, which has me a bit worried. I did take a tablet called Stardol for muscle pain a few days ago. Should I be concerned about my blood pressure or anything else? Would love some guidance.

Get your pressures checked again. If high meet doctor and start medicines . Avoid extra salt. Get a 2DEcho and Ultrasound abdomen.

I'm experiencing some pain in the middle of my chest since last night. I think it might be related to stress and maybe even gastric issues. Should I be considering a heart checkup just to be safe, or is it okay to just monitor it for now?

It is important to rule out any potential heart issues, especially if you are experiencing chest pain. However, based on your description and suspicion of gastric-related pain due to work stress, you can start with an over-the-counter antacid like Tums (calcium carbonate) for relief. If the chest pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation and appropriate management.
