I've been having some chest pain and got an echo done, and the report mentioned "normal diastolic dysfunction." I'm trying to understand what this means. Should I be worried about it being serious, or is it something normal? I'm a bit anxious about what this report could imply. Could you help clarify this for me?

Question

I've been really worried about my heart ever since last year when I started having these chest and left arm pains. I got a TMT and echo done back then, and they showed everything was normal, but I'm still having these pains out of nowhere. It's like I'm always scared I'm gonna have a heart attack. Do you think I should get checked again, or could this be something else altogether?

Question

I'm a bit worried about the possibility of blockages in my arteries. What tests should I consider if I want to know about blockages at all levels, even if they're just in the early stages? Could you explain what those tests involve and how accurate they are?

Question
