Question

I've been having trouble taking deep breaths for about a month now. It feels like there's pressure on my heart, and I can't get rid of this dry mouth, even though I'm drinking lots of water. My X-ray and thyroid tests came back normal. What could be going on? Is there something I should be worried about?

Question

I'm feeling some discomfort with a bit of pain and gas on my left side. I've attached my ECG report. Could you take a look at it and let me know if everything seems normal? Also, how can I tell the difference between gas issues and heart-related pain?

Question

I'm a bit concerned about some of my recent health numbers and would love some insight. My creatinine level came back at 0.66, my HbA1c is 6.3, and my triglycerides are at 208. Also, my LDL is 100.40. On top of that, I'm dealing with blood pressure issues. Can you help me understand what these numbers mean for my overall health and if there's anything specific I should be doing or watching out for?
