Question

I'm trying to figure out the best time to take my blood pressure medicine. Is it better in the morning or evening? I'm currently on Amlip 5. Would love your advice on this.

Can a TMT test really detect heart blockages? Like, if my TMT test comes back negative, should I be concerned about blockages not being detected? Also, what if I have a blockage that's, say, around 10%would the TMT still show positive in that case? I'm just trying to understand how reliable the TMT is for these things.

Question

I had a TMT test in February 2019 and an Echo in April 2020, and both were normal, but I'm still experiencing a lot of symptoms. I've been having chest discomfort that moves to my throat and arm for over two years now. I get ECGs done twice every month since 2019, and they only show sinus tachycardia. How long should I trust the normal TMT results? Since it's not COVID causing this, I keep wondering if I should repeat the TMT and Echo. What do you think?
