I've been having this pain in the heart area of my chest for over three months now, and it happens about twice a week. I haven't been doing any kind of exercise recently. I'm starting to get really worried about it. Could this be something I should be concerned about? What might be causing this, and what should I do?

I'm a bit concerned after my TMT test results. The cardiologist mentioned that everything looked normal, but I noticed that the ST level changed from 2.04 to 1.64 at peak exercise level 3. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it totally normal? I attached the test chart with my report. Would really appreciate your insights on this.

yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 55 and during her recent health check-up, the TMT showed she's mildly positive for inducible ischemia. Her report mentioned that she exercised for 8 minutes, reaching a maximum METS of 10, and her heart rate went from a resting 70 bpm to a max of 164 bpm, which is 99% of her predicted maximum for her age. Plus, her resting BP was 12078 mmHg and it went up to 15090 mmHg. Can you help me understand what all this means and how serious it might be?

tmt report is normal.
