I'm a bit confused about the results of my TMT test. I didn't feel any chest pain during the test, and it said negative for inducible Ischaemia. But then my doctor mentioned the test was mildly positive. Does this mean I need to consider getting an angiogram?

yes as a prognostic tool you may undergo angiogram as advised.

View allI took a taxim o tablet for this swollen lump on my forearm because my doctor suggested it. But as soon as I took it, my heart started racing, and my heart rate shot up to around 120. I'm feeling chest pressure from all this bloating. Why is this happening? I got scared and stopped taking it. What should I do now?
It's possible that you experienced an adverse reaction to Taxim O (cefixime), which is an antibiotic. While antibiotics like cefixime are generally safe, they can occasionally cause side effects in some individuals. The racing heart rate (tachycardia) and chest pressure you experienced may be related to an allergic reaction, anxiety, or even a gastrointestinal side effect such as bloating. It is crucial to report these symptoms to your healthcare provider immediately, as they may need to prescribe an alternative treatment for your swollen lump and address your current symptoms. In the meantime, avoid taking any more of the medication and seek medical attention to ensure your symptoms are properly managed.

Today my mom's been having chest pains, so we got an ECG done. The results mentioned an abnormal R wave progression with early transition. I'm not quite sure what that means or how concerned we should be. Can you explain it to me and let me know if it's anything serious?
yes
