Question 1

I'm 25 and went for a full heart check-up. My ECG and echo were both normal, but my first TMT test came back positive even though I didn't feel any pain or issues while exercising. I decided to take the TMT test again just to be sure, and this time it came back normal or negative. Why would the first TMT show positive? Do I need to look into this more or get further tests done?

Accepted Answer

The initial positive TMT result may be attributed to factors like dehydration, anxiety, or a false positive, especially since you didn't experience any symptoms during exercise and the repeat test came back normal; however, to confirm the absence of any underlying cardiac issues, consider discussing further evaluation with your cardiologist, such as a stress echocardiogram or a cardiac MRI, to rule out any potential concerns.

Question 2

I'm really concerned about my daughter's health. She's 30 and works in IT as a software engineer. Lately, she's been experiencing a lot of laziness, and I'm worried because she always has low blood pressure, less than 10070. Is this something we should be worried about, or can low BP just vary from person to person?

Accepted Answer

Low blood pressure (less than 10070 mmHg) can be normal for some individuals and may not cause any symptoms. However, if your daughter is experiencing symptoms like dizziness, fatigue, or frequent laziness, it could be due to her low blood pressure or other underlying conditions. Its important to evaluate potential causes, such as dehydration, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, or even the effects of a sedentary lifestyle associated with her IT job. Encouraging her to stay hydrated, maintain a balanced diet, and incorporate regular physical activity can help. If her symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying conditions and provide personalized advice.

Question 3

I'm a bit confused and worried about my recent ECG. Last year, my ECG was labeled as "borderline," but the doctor at the time said everything was normal. Now, another doctor is advising me to seek an expert opinion and visit a good hospital. Can you help me understand what's happening with my heart health?

Accepted Answer

Patient needs expert opinion ,cardiologist opinion
