I get tired with chest pain after a deep breath. What to do?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. The first picture suggesting urea and creatinine levels was not clear and hence I could not read the report. Please send me a clear picture. On going through the reading mentioned in the query, there are no clinically significant abnormal results except MPV (mean platelet volume) which was in a higher range. The platelet counts were normal and the potassium is 0.2 less than than the lower range of a normal person. Albumin levels resemble the same and they are within the normal limits.

Higher levels of lymph are seen when there is an inflammation. Please mention more about the symptoms. Please mention whether you have tiredness throughout the day, do you have back pain in the morning or evening, feeling of lethargic, any difficulty in breathing, fever, pain in the abdomen, any recent infection of the upper respiratory tract, and do you have pain in the site where you felt chest pain when touched or pressed. Please answer these questions to help you further.

Hi,

Welcome back to iciniq.com.

Based on the history provided by you, I can strongly suggest that you can have an inflammation affecting the cartilage (costochondritis) as you have a history of viral infection in the past and it hurts you when you press it. You can have a post-viral infection of the upper respiratory tract for two weeks to two to three months. In the absence of this medical history, I relate this to a simple inflammation of the rib cartilage and you need simple pain killers like Paracetamol. It gets settled within two to three days. Your disturbed sleep can occur due to an aside effect of Zoloft (Sertraline) due to its increased dose currently. So, you are experiencing lethargy, sleep disturbance, depression, and abdominal cramps. I suggest you do a thyroid profile to rule out thyroid hormone-related problems.
