I've been experiencing some pain in my left armpit and the far left side of my chest, near the armpit, for almost an hour. It's not super sharp, but it's definitely something I've never felt before. It went away after a while, and I feel fine now. Do you think I should be worried about this?

View allI'm a bit worried about my cholesterol levels. My total cholesterol is 226, HDL is 51, and LDL is 172. Do you think there's a risk with these numbers? Should I be considering any medication?
Total cholesterol level of 226 with HDL of 51 and LDL of 172 indicates a higher risk for cardiovascular disease. It is important to manage these levels to reduce the risk. Lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management are important. In addition, medication may be required to lower cholesterol levels. I recommend starting a statin medication such as Atorvastatin at a dose of 20mg daily to help lower LDL cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.

I'm experiencing this strange pressure on my chest every time I yawn, and it's making me feel like I need to vomit. There's also some pressure on my neck. Can you give me some insight into what might be going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). I recommend taking an over-the-counter antacid like Tums or Rolaids to help with the chest pressure and vomiting sensation. You can also try taking an H2 blocker like Zantac or Pepcid to reduce stomach acid production. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention.

I've been experiencing this sharp, pricking pain in my chest for about a week, and I'm really not sure what it could be. It doesn't stay in one spot and sometimes it's on the left, sometimes on the right, near the left breast, or even below the shoulder. I got both an ECG and an echo, and they both came back normal, but I'm still worried. Any idea what might be going on?
