I'm really confused about my TMT report. It says the test is negative, but one doctor mentioned it might actually be positive. The cardiologist did an echo test too, and that turned out normal. He said there's nothing to worry about, but I'm still concerned. Could you help me understand if there's anything in the TMT that I should be worried about?

If the report mentions TMT negative, it indicates a normal result where no significant changes were observed during the test. Since your cardiologist also conducted an echo test which came back normal and reassured you that there is nothing to worry about, it is unlikely that there is a cause for concern regarding your TMT results. It is important to follow your cardiologist's advice and continue with any recommended follow-up appointments or tests. If you have any further concerns, please consult with your cardiologist for personalized advice.

View allI've been on Amlodipine 5mg for a couple of weeks and have started feeling tightness in my chest and like I might faint. I've had hypertension since taking Telmikind AM twice a day and I'm also on Norethisterone 10 mg. I'm really concerned about these symptoms. Could these medications be causing these side effects, and what should I do about it? Would really appreciate some guidance here.
"Based on your symptoms of tightness in the chest and fainting, it is possible that you are experiencing side effects from the Amlodipine and Telmisartan combination. These medications are commonly used to treat hypertension, but in some cases, they can cause adverse reactions. I recommend that you consult your healthcare provider to discuss alternative medications for your high blood pressure. It is important to address these symptoms promptly to avoid any complications. In the meantime, you should also monitor your blood pressure regularly and avoid any activities that could be dangerous if you experience fainting spells. I don't know the specific medication that would be suitable for you, as it would depend on your individual health profile and any underlying conditions you may have."

I keep waking up with chest pain in the morning. I've already had an ECG, echo, TMT, and chest X-rays, and everything came back normal. I'm currently taking acidity tablets. Sometimes I even feel a pinning sensation in my chest. Do you have any advice on how I can make this pain go away?

So, I've been keeping track of my heart rate and noticed that my resting heart rate is usually between 50 and 55 bpm. I'm a 20-year-old guy, relatively healthy, and Im about 6'2 tall, weighing 74 kg. When I do high-intensity interval training, my heart rate can spike up to 150-160 bpm. Is this normal for someone my age and build, or should I be concerned about these numbers?
A resting heart rate averaging around 50-55 bpm can be normal for a healthy 20-year-old male, especially if you are physically active or an athlete, as regular exercise often leads to a lower resting heart rate due to increased cardiovascular efficiency. Reaching a heart rate of 150-160 bpm during High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is also within normal ranges for vigorous exercise. However, if you experience symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, or fainting, it would be advisable to consult with a healthcare provider to ensure there are no underlying issues. Otherwise, your heart rate appears consistent with a healthy, active lifestyle.
