I've been experiencing chest sensations, heartburn, and a weird feeling on the left side of my chest next to my armpit, which has been going on for two days. Additionally, I feel a tight or strained sensation in the left side of my neck (carotid artery) when I open my mouth wide, move my jaw, or turn my head. I'm worried about my arteries and whether these symptoms could be serious.

I had an MRI that showed mild microvascular white matter disease and slightly prominent ventricular size for my age. I have multiple myeloma and have been on chemotherapy since June 6, 2016. Could these treatments have caused these MRI findings, and what could be the reasons for the ventricular size?

I have a large sore on my elbow vein that keeps breaking open and bleeding despite using triple antibiotic ointment and bandaids. It looks infected, and I have chronic illnesses including severe gastroparesis and dysmotility of the intestinal tract. My blood pressure is 127/90, heart rate is 114, and oxygen level is 98%. I have an appointment on Monday morning. Should I be concerned, and is there anything else I should do?
