I'm really concerned because I'm still having this pain on the left side of my chest and in my neck, even though my TMT and high-sensitive troponin tests came back normal. Should I still be worried about the possibility of a heart attack?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's good that your TMT test and high sensitive troponin I test results are normal. However, persistent left chest pain and neck side pain should not be ignored. It's important to further investigate the cause of your symptoms. You may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain or other non-cardiac issues, but it's essential to rule out any cardiac concerns. You can take a medication like Acetaminophen 500mg for pain relief. If your symptoms persist or worsen, consider consulting a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

View allI had an angiography a couple of months ago, and it showed there's about a 60-70% blockage in a main artery. I've been on oral medication for it, but I'm curiousare there other ways to check how much blockage is still there or if there's been any improvement since I started the meds? Would love to get some advice.
Angiography is a common procedure used to diagnose blockages in arteries. To check the current level of blockage and monitor improvements during treatment, a follow-up angiography can be performed. This will allow the doctors to visually assess the blockage and determine if there have been any improvements with the oral medications. One commonly used oral medication for treating blockages in arteries is Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 10-80 mg per day, depending on the severity of the condition. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is important to monitor your progress and adjust treatment as needed.

I'm looking at my 2D echo report and I'm a bit worried about my heart health. It says my mean PAP is 23.18 and PASP is 38mm Hg. There's also something about a peak tricuspid regurgitation velocity of 2.6, and it's noted as mild tricuspid regurgitation. The report mentions my ejection fraction is 60 and that I have good systolic function, with no diastolic dysfunction. I'm just wondering if there's a risk of pulmonary hypertension with these numbers?
Based on your 2D echo report, with a mean PAP of 23.18 and PASP of 38mm Hg, along with a peak tricuspid regurgitation velocity of 2.6 and mild tricuspid regurgitation, it indicates that there is a possibility of pulmonary hypertension. However, further evaluation and monitoring by a healthcare professional are recommended to determine the severity and appropriate treatment.

I'm really worried because my recent test showed high levels of homocysteine, about 10 points above the upper range. I'm wondering if there are any homeopathy treatments that might help with this. Can you offer any advice or suggestions?
High homocysteine means that your blood is thicker and because of smoke or smoking or because of dusty environment so stop smoking or else your blood will be thicker and you will have high chances of blockage in your blood vessels
