Hello Doctor, I experienced severe dizziness, shortness of breath, and palpitations, so I consulted a doctor and underwent several tests. Could you please review my report and let me know if there is anything serious? I also have swelling in both ankles, but without any pain.

Dear Sir or Madam, Recently I am suffering from low urine production, fast heartbeat, chest pain while deep breathing, abdominal pain and headache. My blood report shows high sodium level at 148 mmol per L. What should I do?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My urine report shows blood present 1 plus, leukocytes about 15, and red blood cells 8 to 10. I usually run daily and three days ago I felt pain in my lower right back while running but I continued. Since then I have been facing lower back pain and I need to force myself to urinate. The pain in the lower right back has not stopped and I still feel difficulty while passing urine.
