What are the signs of a silent heart attack for someone my age? I'm a young guy and just trying to understand what I should look out for.

A silent heart attack, also known as a silent myocardial infarction, can occur without the classic symptoms of chest pain. For young males, signs may include unexplained fatigue, shortness of breath, discomfort in the upper back or jaw, nausea, sweating, or lightheadedness. These symptoms can be subtle and often mistaken for less serious conditions. It's crucial to be aware of these signs, especially if you have risk factors such as a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, or obesity. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical evaluation promptly.

I'm really worried about some ongoing chest pain I've been experiencing. After a rod hit me in the chest back in November 2015, I had a brief issue with my breathing, which seemed to get better. But then, by February 2016, I started having severe chest pain. I got checked at CMH Narayana Hrudayalaya to see if it was related to my heart, but everything came out fine. This pain keeps coming back, and it's like a muscle pull behind my rib cage. Could this be a problem with my heart or even my lungs?

My mom recently had a TMT test, and it showed a mild positive for inducible ischemia. The thing is, she didnt feel any pain or discomfort during the test. The doctor suggested we should go for an angiogram, but she's planning to go abroad for six months. Is it okay if we wait and do the angio after she comes back? Should we be concerned about waiting that long?

It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding the timing of the angiogram. However, in cases of mild positive inducible ischemia without symptoms, it may be possible to wait for 6 months before undergoing the angiogram. It is important to monitor your mother's symptoms and follow up with her doctor regularly during this time. If any new symptoms develop or if there are any changes in her health status, it is important to consult with her doctor earlier.
