Why did my father-in-law's full body checkup indicate inducible ischemia? He has been feeling breathless after physical activity and sometimes gets numbness in his left hand. Should we be concerned and do something about it right away?

Question

I'm dealing with severe anxiety and depression symptoms for the past few years, and I've had a couple of panic attacks. Now I'm seeing some ECG changes, but my Troponin levels are within normal limits. Both my ECHO and Angiography came out normal. Does this mean my heart is okay? Is it safe for me to do intense exercise? Sometimes I feel a sharp pain in my chest area that only lasts for a few seconds and goes away quickly. Any idea why my ECG has changed? What can I do about feeling weak all the time? And it's weird, but my feet are always cold. Any thoughts on what's going on?

Question

What does it mean when my CT coronary angiography says there's a type 2 issue in the LAD? I've been dealing with chest pain and palpitations, and I'm really worried about what this could imply for my heart health. Could you help me understand what this result means and how serious it might be?

Question

I'm really worried after seeing my father's recent echo report. It mentioned mild concentric LV hypertrophy and Grade 1 LV diastolic dysfunction. His LVEF is at 75, which I think is good? But then there are terms like MV, AE, AV normal, and TDI EE 10.18, and I'm not sure what all that means. Can you help me understand the report and what it means for his heart health?
