I had a TMT test in February 2019 and an Echo in April 2020, and both were normal, but I'm still experiencing a lot of symptoms. I've been having chest discomfort that moves to my throat and arm for over two years now. I get ECGs done twice every month since 2019, and they only show sinus tachycardia. How long should I trust the normal TMT results? Since it's not COVID causing this, I keep wondering if I should repeat the TMT and Echo. What do you think?

I've noticed that whenever I eat food or refined oil, my blood pressure rises, and I feel this intense warmth inside my body. Plus, my hand nerves start beating at 100 beats per minute. Is this normal, or should I be worried about something more serious?

It could be a sign of a possible food sensitivity or intolerance. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult with your doctor for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try to avoid foods that trigger these symptoms and consider taking medication.

How does diabetes increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke?

With time, raised blood sugar levels can damage the blood vessels and nerves that control the heart. Additionally, people with diabetes are also more likely to have other conditions that raise the risk for heart disease/ stroke such as high blood pressure and deranged cholesterol or triglyceride levels.
