I'm really concerned because my blood pressure was quite high at 17090 before I did the TMT test. Could that be the reason why my TMT test came back positive?

Question

I'm feeling really worried because I've been having this sharp, burning chest pain for about a week now. It seems to get a bit better when I change positions or drink water, but it's really bothering me. The pain is right where my heart is. Do you think this could be something serious, or is it something I can manage on my own? What might be causing this?

Question

I've been having some chest pain that moves around a bit - sometimes it's on the left side, other times in the middle. I walk 5 km every day and I don't feel any pain when I walk, which is odd. About a year and a half ago, I had a TMT, Echo, and ECG done, and everything came back normal. Since then, I've had four more ECGs, and they're all normal too. I attached my latest ECG here. I'm just wondering, is there anything else I can do to really make sure this isn't a heart-related issue? The pain mostly hits when I'm sitting, so I can't figure out what's going on. Could it really be non-cardiac?

Question

I'm really concerned about my mom. She had a heart attack at the end of October and initially had some anginal pain, but the meds seemed to help for a couple of months. After an angiography, her doctor found an 85% blockage in the LCX OM artery and decided to do an angioplasty. I was hoping that would improve things, but a month later, her LVEF dropped from 45 to 32. Before the angioplasty, her heart was stable, and the dimensions of the left atrium and ventricle seemed normal, but now they're dilated. I was expecting her to get better after the angioplasty and I'm really worried. It's just me and my mom, and I need some guidance on what could be happening. Can you help?
