Brief Answer: please get her vitals checked Detailed Answer: Hello XXXXXXX Your mother has a medical history of high blood sugar, BP and cholesterol. She is currently experiencing slight pain in her chest and feeling uneasy since last 2 days. In view of her background history and her current symptoms, I would suggest you to get her vitals checked. By this I mean, get her BP, heart rate checked. Also, get her blood sugar checked. A baseline ECG would be required to look at the status of her heart. If these tests are normal, nothing to worry then. IF not, she will require further testing. In the meantime, i would advise her complete bed rest, and plenty of fluids orally. Wish her quick recovery. Regards,
