I've been feeling this needle-like pain in my left chest that started a couple of nights ago while I was asleep and it lasted about 10 minutes. Afterward, I started getting these intermittent pin-pricking pains on both sides of my chest. Now I'm even feeling some discomfort in my back and mild pains in my left shoulder and arms, which sometimes shift to the right side. Im already dealing with a breathing problem and recently noticed some chest tightness. I dont feel tired or dizzy, but I do have a stomach ulcer. I'm really worried this could be some kind of heart attack or angina. What should I do?

View allI'm having some chest pain on the left side and I've been needing to urinate 4 to 5 times a day. Plus, my stomach feels uneasy. What's going on with me? Can you give me some advice?
Chest pain on the left side, frequent urination, and stomach discomfort can be symptoms of various conditions. It's important to consider both cardiac and non-cardiac causes. Given the chest pain, its essential to rule out any heart-related issues first. Since you're experiencing frequent urination and stomach discomfort, potential causes could include gastrointestinal issues like gastritis or a urinary tract infection (UTI). I recommend consulting your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation, which may include an ECG, blood tests, urine analysis, and potentially an abdominal ultrasound. This will help determine the underlying cause and guide appropriate treatment.

I'm wondering if taking 40 mg of atorvastatin for just 5 days is enough to lower triglycerides and VLDL levels? Is it safe to then stop the medication abruptly after such a short time? I'm just worried about the correct dosage and whether this approach is effective or if it might cause any issues.
take statins for 2 to 3 months minimum to get a good response. 5 days medicine will not give desirable benefits.
