View allI'm a bit worried about my dad's recent test results. The doctor recommended a 2D echo and a treadmill test for him. The 2D echo came back normal, but the treadmill test showed a positive stress result. I've heard that only 4 out of 10 times, these TMT tests are accurate, which is kinda freaking me out. If one test is normal and the other one isn't, does that mean there's something to be concerned about? Could you shed some light on this?
If TMT is normal Better to under screening Angiogram,do not neglect,visit Cardiologist for the same

I've been dealing with chest pain for the past three months that comes and goes, and it often spreads to my left shoulder, arm, and even my jaw. Sometimes I get dizzy too. I had COVID before, and now I'm also experiencing some breathing issues since last week. I saw a cardiologist, and the ECG, trop test, and chest X-ray all showed nothing unusual. I had an echo and a TMT done today. Can you help me understand what's going on? What could be causing my symptoms if all these tests are normal?
Based on your symptoms and the tests you have undergone, it seems like you may be experiencing symptoms of angina or coronary artery disease. Since your ECG, troponin test, chest X-ray, echo, and TMT are normal, it is important to continue monitoring your symptoms and follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can take medications like Aspirin 75mg once daily to help reduce the risk of heart attack, and medications like Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to manage cholesterol levels. Additionally, Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets can be taken as needed for chest pain relief. It is also important to make lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, quitting smoking (if applicable), and managing stress to improve your overall heart health. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm 25, and I've been dealing with this on-and-off pain in my left arm for about 15-20 days now. It was sharp and shooting at first, so I thought it might be gastritis, but now the pain's more dull and constant. Lately, for about a week, I've been feeling breathless sometimes, and there's some nausea too. I get tired pretty quick and now there's this annoying discomfort in my upper back. Should I be looking into any specific tests or is there something else I should be considering?
MRI of the left arm and ortho opinion is advised
