I'm feeling really worried about some symptoms I've been experiencing. I've been having mild chest pain in both my chest and some pain in my shoulder and back when I'm at rest. My ECG showed WPW, but my echocardiogram came back normal. The doctor mentioned these symptoms aren't cardiac-related, which was a relief at first, but then my routine TMT test came back positive with a report of ST depression ischemia. I'm also concerned about my cholesterol levels, with total cholesterol at 139, HDL at 33, and LDL at 103. Given my situation and age, is there some risk I should be aware of? What should I do because I'm really worried about my health? By the way, I don't feel any pain while I'm working or walking.
Mild chest pain in both the chest while resting and shoulder and back pain, ulcer and anxiety. ECG found WPW and echo normal. Doctor said nothing to worry. Symptoms are non-cardiac but in routine test TMT test came positive, conclusion in report was ST depression ischemia. My overall cholesterol is 139, HDL 33, and LDL 103. Is there some risk as per my age? What to do? I am really worried a lot. I have no pain while working or walking. Based on your symptoms and test results, it is important to address the positive TMT test with ST depression ischemia. This could indicate a risk of heart disease, especially with your cholesterol levels. To manage this condition, you can start taking a medication like Atorvastatin (Lipitor) 20mg to help lower your LDL cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart-related issues. Additionally, considering your anxiety and chest pain, you can take medications like Pantoprazole (Protonix) 40mg for ulcer symptoms and an anti-anxiety medication like Lorazepam (Ativan) 0.5mg to help with anxiety symptoms. It is also recommended to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management. Regular exercise, a healthy diet, and stress management techniques can also help improve your overall health and reduce the risk of heart disease.
