I've been feeling this chest pain every day, and it's making me really uncomfortable. My ECG, echo, and TMT all came back normal, so Im a bit puzzled and worried. Why isn't anything showing up in the tests even though I'm still dealing with these symptoms? What could be going on with my chest?

Given that your ECG, echo, and TMT results are normal, and you continue to experience daily chest pain and discomfort, it's likely that your symptoms might not be heart-related. Other possible causes could include musculoskeletal issues like costochondritis or muscle strain, gastrointestinal problems such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or anxiety-related symptoms. It would be beneficial to consult with a gastroenterologist to rule out any digestive issues and consider a musculoskeletal evaluation for potential muscular causes. Additionally, managing any underlying anxiety through therapy or relaxation techniques may help alleviate your symptoms. Please discuss these possibilities with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate treatment plan.

I've been keeping an eye on my triglycerides levels, which are currently at 230, and my HDL is at 28. We usually cook with mustard oil at home. I've heard some conflicting info about it building up triglycerides around the heart. Is mustard oil actually heart-friendly, or should I be considering other options for cooking? I'm really hoping for some guidance on this.

Mustard oil is not recommended for individuals with high triglyceride levels as it may contribute to an increase in triglycerides. It is advisable to switch to healthier cooking oils such as olive oil or canola oil, which are beneficial for heart health. Additionally, incorporating foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids like fatty fish, flaxseeds, and walnuts can help improve your lipid profile.
