Question 1

I'm really concerned about my dad. He recently had a TMT test, and it came back positive. But when they did the ECO and ECG tests, everything looked normal, and he hasn't mentioned any issues with breathing, whether he's running or walking. Can you help me understand why the TMT result was positive and what we should do next?

Accepted Answer

since tmt is positive,and echo and ecg is normal the causes of false positive tests could be due to electrolyte imbalances and also due to increased blood pressure .. could be the probable causes of tmt positive .Also a cardiologist opinion is advised

I'm experiencing this pinching needle-like pain mainly in my left arm, back, left nipple, and even my left leg. It's really random and just comes and goes. Should I be worried that this might be related to a heart problem?

Accepted Answer

These symptoms could potentially be related to a heart issue, such as angina. However, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 81mg once daily to help prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack. If the symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention immediately.

Question 5

I'm a bit concerned about my blood pressureit seems to be all over the place. Sometimes its normal, but other times it spikes. Im trying to understand what my true blood pressure level is. How can I get an accurate diagnosis for this?

Accepted Answer

To diagnose the correct exact blood pressure level, you can monitor your blood pressure regularly at home using a digital blood pressure monitor. Make sure to follow these steps: 1. Sit quietly for 5 minutes before taking your blood pressure. 2. Place the cuff on your bare upper arm at heart level. 3. Take two or three readings, 1 minute apart, in the morning before taking any medications and in the evening before dinner. 4. Record the date, time, and blood pressure readings. 5. Share this record with your doctor for proper evaluation and management. If your blood pressure continues to fluctuate, your doctor may recommend further evaluation or prescribe antihypertensive medication such as Amlodipine (Norvasc) 5mg once daily to help control your blood pressure.
