I'm wondering if I should consider getting an angiography. This morning I had a TMT, and back in 2012, I had a stent surgery because of a blockage. I have all the screenshots of my TMT report. What do you think?

Based on your history of stent surgery in 2012 and the recent TMT conducted in the morning, it is important to assess the current status of your coronary arteries to determine if there is any blockage or narrowing that may require intervention. Angiography is a common procedure used to visualize the coronary arteries and identify any blockages. Considering your history and the recent TMT results, it would be advisable to proceed with angiography to get a clearer picture of the condition of your coronary arteries. This will help in determining the appropriate course of action, whether it involves medical management, further interventions, or monitoring. Please consult with your healthcare provider to discuss the next steps and to schedule the angiography procedure. It is important to follow up on any recommendations based on the results of the angiography to ensure optimal management of your cardiac health.

View allI'm really worried about my dad's high blood pressure. We've tried consulting multiple doctors, but nothing seems to be helping. Is there anything specific we might be missing or any new treatment options we should consider?
High blood pressure that is difficult to control can be challenging. Your dad may benefit from a combination of medications to help manage his blood pressure. One common combination that doctors prescribe is amlodipine (5mg) along with losartan (50mg) taken once daily. It is important to continue monitoring his blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and managing stress to help improve his condition.

I've been having these chest pains that come and gosometimes they're just a few seconds, other times they last for a few hours. It's mostly around the left side of my chest, but I don't have any trouble breathing, even after running, and there's no pain spreading to my neck or shoulder. I've been trying Pantoprazole for a while, but it hasn't really helped. What could be going on? Any advice would be appreciated.
"Chest pain on the left side that lasts for a few seconds to a few hours and no breathing issues after running could be due to musculoskeletal pain, anxiety, or even heart-related issues. Since Pantoprazole has not been effective, I recommend trying over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen at a dose of 500mg to 1000mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. Additionally, you can try a muscle relaxant like Cyclobenzaprine at a dose of 5mg to 10mg three times a day. If the pain persists or worsens, it is important to seek further evaluation from a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and management."
