Question 1

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 55 and during her recent health check-up, the TMT showed she's mildly positive for inducible ischemia. Her report mentioned that she exercised for 8 minutes, reaching a maximum METS of 10, and her heart rate went from a resting 70 bpm to a max of 164 bpm, which is 99% of her predicted maximum for her age. Plus, her resting BP was 12078 mmHg and it went up to 15090 mmHg. Can you help me understand what all this means and how serious it might be?

Accepted Answer

tmt report is normal.

Question 2

I've had this chest pain for like 10 days now, and my ECG came back normal, which is good I guess? But I'm on these meds like mild TR and taking aceclofenac paracetamol tablets. Could you explain what's going on with my chest pain? Is it something I should be worried about? And is there anything else you think I should be doing?

Accepted Answer

do ECHO once if chest pain persists

Question 3

I've been noticing that I can hear my heartbeat pretty clearly while I'm sleeping, especially in a sitting position. Sometimes it even feels like my heart is lifting or something, and it's a bit worrying. I don't have any issues with sugar or blood pressure, but my heart rate is around 100 bpm. Should I be concerned about this for my future health? What do you think?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of palpitations, which can be concerning. I recommend you to consult with a cardiologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take Tab Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help regulate your heart rate and reduce palpitations. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further management.

I sometimes get this pain on both sides of my chest. It's kind of worrying because it comes with shortness of breath and my chest feels tight. Should I be concerned about these symptoms, and could they be related to anything serious?

Probable diagnosis is upper respiratory tract infection.Patient is advised tab augmentin 625mg orally,thrice dailly for 5 days,tab levocetrizine 10 mg for 5 days and syrup salbutomol 10 ml thrice dailly for 5 days.
