Question

I've been experiencing chest pain on the left side for about 8 months now. I've had an ECG and an Echo, and both came back normal. I even did a TMT test, and it was negative too, even though it showed a heart problem. But I'm still having this chest pain. Could you shed some light on what might be going on? It's really concerning.

Question

I'm trying to understand what it means if a TMT result comes back positive. Does this indicate there's an issue with my heart? Should I be worried about any specific heart conditions?

Question

I had an AVR with a mechanical valve about 9 years ago and I'm wondering about my life expectancy now. I make sure to go for my yearly checkups, and my last echo showed an EF of 60, LVDD of 50mm, LA 36mm, with PW and IVS at 1.1cm. My INR level is 2.87. Could you give me some insights on these numbers and what they mean for my future?
