My mom's been dealing with pain in her left arm and shoulder for a couple of years now. The doctors prescribed ecosprin 75mg, lipicure 20mg, and monit GTN 2.6, and she's been on these for the past two years. They also mentioned doing tests like HTN and CAD to figure out what's going on. I'm wondering what specific tests she should have and how much they might cost. Any guidance would be really helpful!
