Hello Doctor,
I am 25 years old and currently living in Hyderabad. For the past few months, I have been facing several health issues such as a weak immune system, chest discomfort that feels like heart pain, digestive problems, brain fog, memory difficulties, and trouble expressing myself clearly. I also experience constant discomfort in my stomach area, occasional difficulty breathing, and sometimes pain near my lungs. Overall, I feel very nervous and unwell.
After thinking carefully, I realized that these problems may have started after I mistakenly consumed expired flaxseed oil. Around three years ago, I had purchased 3 liters of flaxseed oil, but most of it remained unused and expired. A few months ago, while refilling my oil bottle, my mother accidentally used the old, expired oil. Without realizing it, I consumed about 1 liter of it over the past three months.
Please help me, what kind of test should be done, I'm student doesn't have much money, so provide a less cost treatmen
