I'm trying to figure out how long the results of a treadmill test (TMT) are valid. If I keep up a pretty active lifestyle, when would be a good time to consider getting another TMT done for just a regular check-up? Would love any advice on that!

Im a bit worried about my heart rate. Ive noticed that when I wake up or when Im sleeping, it's usually around 80 to 90 beats per minute. But once Im up and about during the day, it jumps to over 100 and sometimes even hits 120 beats per minute. Im curious about why this is happening and what I can do to manage it. Any advice on how to handle this situation?

It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of tachycardia, which is a condition where your heart rate is consistently elevated. I recommend you to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan. To help manage your symptoms, you can try using a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to help regulate your heart rate. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques, maintaining a healthy diet, and staying hydrated can also help in managing your heart rate.

I'm trying to figure out the best method or test to determine if my heart is in good condition. I've heard that an echo might not fully guarantee a healthy heart. Can you clarify this for me and maybe suggest other reliable options?

The best way to check the health of your heart is through a combination of tests. One of the most common and effective tests is an ECG (Electrocardiogram), which measures the electrical activity of your heart. Additionally, an Echocardiogram (Echo) can provide valuable information about the structure and function of your heart. To get a comprehensive assessment, you can also consider a stress test to evaluate how your heart performs under physical exertion. These tests, along with blood tests to check cholesterol and other markers, can give a good indication of your heart health.

I'm feeling really confused right now. My ECG showed something called inferolateral ischemia, but then both my TMT and 2D echo tests came back normal. I'm not sure what's going on, and it's making me anxious. On top of that, my cholesterol and triglycerides levels are over 240. What could be causing these mixed test results, and what should I consider as the next step for treatment?
