Question
I'm really concerned about this recurring middle chest pain I've been experiencing. I had a coronary angiogram done a while back on March 14, 2014, and everything showed normal coronaries, except for this myocardial bridging of the LAD. Can you help me understand what this means? Is this related to my chest pain, and should I be worried about it? Also, is there a validity period for the angiogram results, or is it something I should get checked again after a certain time?

The validity of your coronary angiogram performed on 14.3.14, which showed normal coronary arteries and myocardial bridging of the LAD, can diminish over time due to factors such as the progression of coronary artery disease, changes in symptoms, and continued risk factors like smoking or high blood pressure. Since the angiogram only provides a snapshot in time, it's important to regularly monitor your heart health, especially if you experience new or worsening chest pain. For the most accurate and up-to-date assessment, please consult your cardiologist, who may recommend repeat testing or other diagnostic procedures based on your current condition. Regular follow-ups are crucial to ensure your heart health is effectively managed.
