I'm experiencing this strange vibration in my left chest and it sometimes spreads to my left hand. It's been happening for a few years whenever I cry, cough, or laugh. It feels like something's going to burst out of my chest. I'm a bit worried and not sure which kind of specialist I should see. Any recommendations?

View allI'm trying to understand what a zero calcium score really means for my heart health. My CT scan showed a score of zero, and my doctor mentioned that I'll need another scan in 10 years. He ordered some blood tests for cholesterol and Hs-CRP, which he said were good, and mentioned there's no hard plaques and a very low risk of soft plaques since there's no sugar, cholesterol, or inflammation. What does this say about my risk for a heart attack? And can a CT scan show more about my coronary arteries besides just looking for calcium deposits?
A zero calcium score on a CT scan indicates that there is no evidence of calcium deposits in your coronary arteries. This is a good sign as it suggests a low risk of coronary artery disease and heart attack. The fact that your cholesterol test and Hs-CRP test results were good further supports this. The CT scan can also provide information about the anatomy of your coronary arteries, such as any blockages or narrowing that may be present. Since your doctor has recommended a repeat scan after 10 years, it is important to continue following up with regular check-ups to monitor your heart health.

I'm concerned about the results from my husband's recent TMT test. He's 49 years old, and I noticed that his blood pressure was 12080 at the start but increased to 13080 afterward. Is this cause for concern, or is it normal for blood pressure to rise like that after a TMT test?

I'm currently dealing with a blood pressure reading of 10871, which seems pretty normal. I usually take Telpres CT 4012.5 for my high blood pressure and Etizola Beta to manage my anxiety issues. With my blood pressure being in the normal range right now, I'm wondering if I should keep taking my blood pressure meds or if it's safe to stop them?
Your blood pressure is currently within the normal range. It is important to continue taking your blood pressure medication as prescribed by your doctor, even if your blood pressure is normal at the moment. Stopping medication abruptly can lead to a sudden increase in blood pressure. However, you can discuss with your doctor about possibly adjusting the dosage or switching to a different medication based on your current blood pressure readings. For now, continue taking Telpres CT 4012.5 for your blood pressure.
