Burning in chest and left hand
I have been having burning sensation in chest and that goes to left hand. This is present for days and causing this discomfort. I have this problem from many years and many times ECG is done and it was normal. 8 months ago ECG and 2D echo were done and they were normal. Recently I got general health check done and it showed high cholestrol. Total cholestrol is 268 and LDL 194. HDL 36. Triglycerides are 189. Doctor gave me rosuvac 10mg for a month. And started on physical activity also. Please advise I had heart checkup done 8 months ago also and it was normal, this burning sensation in chest was there from almost 8 to 9 years. Please advise if that cholestrol medicine is sufficient with lifestyle changes. Thyroid profile is normal, hba1c is 5.4. Kft and Lft are also normal.

The burning chest discomfort you describe, especially with radiation to the left hand, should not be ignored. Even though past ECGs and echo were normal, I would strongly suggest a thorough cardiac evaluation by a cardiologist to rule out heart-related causes.
Regarding cholesterol: based on your results, rosuvastatin plus lifestyle changes are appropriate for now, but ongoing monitoring and specialist review are important.
