Is it a big deal that my TMT showed significant ST depression of 0.1mm in leads V4-V6 at peak exercise but didn't persist in recovery? The test said mildly positive for RMI, and I reached my target heart rate. I did Bruce stage 3 for about 8.09 minutes. My blood pressure is normal resting at 12080 and after exercise, it was 14080. I'm not diabetic. My METs were 10.2. Should I be worried about this? Could it be treated at this stage? Do I need to go for an angiography, and if I do, how soon should it be done?

I've noticed that every afternoon when I try to take a rest, my heartbeat feels really high, and the only time I seem to realize it is when I'm lying down in bed. It's becoming a bit concerning. Is it normal to experience something like this, or should I be worried about it? Could there be any specific reason for my heart to race at that time of day?
This could be a sign of a condition called paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT), where your heart suddenly beats very fast for a short period of time. It is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further management.

I'm currently taking Telma 40mg twice a day as my doctor recommended, but I accidentally bought Telma 20 instead. To make up for it, I've been taking two Telma 20 tablets each time. Is this okay, or did I mess up? Should I be concerned about any risks with doubling up like this?
No, as long as the dosage remains the same, it should not cause any significant issues.
