I'm feeling pretty anxious because my ECG report showed T wave inversion, but the TMT test came back normal. I've attached both reports. Since finding out about the T wave inversion, I've started experiencing some chest pressure and slight pain, which I didn't feel before. I'm really concerned whether this could be something serious or if it's just stress-related. Any insight on why this might be happening?

T wave inversion on ECG can sometimes be a normal variant, especially if the TMT test is normal. However, since you are experiencing chest pressure and slight pain, it is important to further evaluate the cause. In this case, considering your symptoms, it would be advisable to start medication to relieve chest pressure and pain. you can take Tablet Ranitidine 150mg twice a day to reduce any acid-related symptoms that may be causing chest discomfort. It is also important to manage stress through relaxation techniques and regular exercise. If the symptoms persist or worsen, further evaluation by a cardiologist may be necessary.

View allI've been feeling a bit worried. I'm 14 and I've noticed my heart starts to race, like palpitations, especially after I've had a lot of sugar or after I've been really stressed out for a couple of days. Is this normal? Should I be concerned about this?
Heart palpitations in young individuals can sometimes be triggered by excessive sugar intake and stress. It is important to monitor your sugar consumption and practice stress management techniques. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker like Propranolol 10mg to help with the palpitations. However, if the palpitations persist or worsen, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

My dad's experiencing some angina pain, and we went to see a doctor at Sgpgi. They recommended an angiography, and it turns out there's an 80% blockage in each of his arteries. What does this mean for his health, and what should we consider doing next?
The recommended medication for managing angina pain due to blockage in the arteries is Nitroglycerin. It helps to relax and widen blood vessels, improving blood flow to the heart. Additionally, your father may also be prescribed antiplatelet medications like Aspirin to prevent blood clots, and statins like Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages.

I'm really worried about this ongoing lightheadedness I've been dealing with for the past 8 months. It's like I'm under the influence of something, almost like alcohol, but I'm not. I've had these scary episodes where my chest hurts and my blood pressure shoots up to 150100. The ER told me it was a panic attack, and it's happened twice now. I've undergone so many testsHolter Monitor, ECG, EKG, chest and heart CT scans, even a brain MRI and countless blood tests. Everything comes back normal, including checks for anemia and thyroid issues. They did find H. Pylori, and I finished a 14-day antibiotic course for that, but otherwise, doctors say I'm fine. Yet, I can't shake these feelings and symptoms. I'm 30, 6 feet tall, and weigh 90 kg, with blood pressure often around 13590. I've even had ECGs during the pain episodes. Can you help me figure out what might be going on here?
It sounds like you have been through a thorough evaluation for your symptoms. Since all your reports have come back normal and your doctors have ruled out various possible causes, including panic attacks, it's important to consider other factors that may be contributing to your lightheadedness and other symptoms. One possible cause could be inner ear problems leading to vertigo-like symptoms. I recommend trying a medication called Meclizine (brand name Antivert) at a dose of 25-100 mg per day to help with your lightheadedness. Additionally, you may benefit from vestibular rehabilitation therapy to address any inner ear issues. It's also important to stay well-hydrated, maintain a healthy diet, and practice stress-reducing activities such as yoga or meditation. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it may be helpful to see an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist for further evaluation and management.
