Chest Burn/ Heat Sensation
Hi Doctor,
I have been experiencing chest burning/ heat sensation since the last 2 days.
It usually occurs when I lie down in my bed, after food. It doesn't happen when I go for a 1 hour walk, neither am I facing any other pain in my body.
I had my full body check up 3 months back and my lipid profile came as follows-
VLDL- 28.34
LDL/HDL Ratio- 3.53
LDL- 152
Non HDL- 169
Triglycerides- 141.7
HDL- 43
TC/ HDL- 4.93
Total- 212
My father is a heart patient with 5 stents + diabetic.
I am a smoker as well.
Please find attached the electrocardiograph as well.
Kindly guide as I am a little worried at this moment.
Due to the lockdown I am unable to go out and visit a doctor.
