I've been experiencing a lot of stiffness in my chest lately, and sometimes there's this pain that pops up on the left side, right side, or even in the center of my chest. I've had a chest CT, blood tests, and even an abdominal CT and ultrasound, and everything seems to come back normal. It's just really confusing and a bit worrying. What could be causing this if all the tests are normal?

View allI've been dealing with hypertension for the last 12 years and usually take TOZAM Losartan 50mg Amlodipine 5mg in the morning. But about a month ago, I noticed some palpitations and sweating, and when I checked, my blood pressure was 95150. After getting checked at the hospital, they did an angiogram and said theres a minor artery disease with a 30% block. Now, they've put me on TOZAM and Prolomate XL 25mg Metoprolol 25mg every morning, plus Rosutor Gold Aspirin at night. I'm wondering, do I really need to be on both TOZAM and Prolomate, or is there something else I should be considering?
Yes both are required to regulate your haert function,no need to worry follow your doctors advice and maintain healthy lifestyle.

I've just gotten some test results back and I'm a bit concerned. Most things seem to be in the normal range except for my Vitamin D 25 hydroxy and lipid profile. My Vitamin D 25 hydroxy level is at 32. For my lipid profile, my cholesterol is 206, triglycerides are 337, HDL is 35, LDL is 103.5, and VLDL is 67.5. Should I be consulting a physician or maybe even a cardiologist about this? I'm also curious about what precautions or medications I should consider to help lower my lipid profile and increase my Vitamin D 25 hydroxy levels.
Your vitamin D 25 hydroxy levels are lower than the normal range, and your lipid profile, specifically cholesterol and triglycerides, are elevated. To address these issues, you can take the following steps: 1. For Vitamin D deficiency (25 hydroxy level of 32): - You can take Vitamin D supplements such as "Calcirol" 60,000 IU once a week for 8 weeks, followed by maintenance therapy of "Uprise D3" 60,000 IU once a month. - Spend more time in sunlight as it helps in natural synthesis of Vitamin D. 2. For high lipid profile: - To lower cholesterol, you can take statin medications such as "Atorvastatin" 20mg once daily. - To lower triglycerides, you can take medications like "Fenofibrate" 160mg once daily. - Additionally, focus on a healthy diet low in saturated fats, cholesterol, and simple sugars. - Regular exercise and weight management can also help improve lipid levels. It is advisable to follow up with a physician for further evaluation and monitoring of your lipid profile and vitamin D levels.
