View allI had a TMT test in February 2019 and an Echo in April 2020, and both were normal, but I'm still experiencing a lot of symptoms. I've been having chest discomfort that moves to my throat and arm for over two years now. I get ECGs done twice every month since 2019, and they only show sinus tachycardia. How long should I trust the normal TMT results? Since it's not COVID causing this, I keep wondering if I should repeat the TMT and Echo. What do you think?

I'm dealing with anxiety that's causing me to have chest pain, and sometimes my blood pressure goes way up. I've already done an ECG, 2D Echo, and some blood tests because of the pain. Could you take a look at my Echo report and give me some advice? I'm really worried about my health right now.
Based on your symptoms and tests, it seems like you are experiencing anxiety-induced chest pain and fluctuations in blood pressure. It's important to manage your anxiety to alleviate these symptoms. I recommend starting with an anti-anxiety medication such as Xanax (alprazolam) 0.5mg twice daily. Additionally, to help with chest pain, you can take Ibuprofen 400mg as needed for pain relief. It's also important to practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises and mindfulness meditation to help reduce anxiety levels. Regular exercise and a healthy diet can also contribute to overall well-being.

I'm really worried about my dad. He recently had an acute heart attack, and he's 68. Thankfully, he's stable now, but he's also dealing with diabetes. We consulted a cardiologist and decided not to do the angiography because his serum creatinine level was around 1.7, which was a bit high. He's on medication at the moment. Our cardiologist mentioned vaccines called Pulmovac and Vomimp for his heart. I'm curious to know if these vaccines are helpful and if there are any potential side effects I should be aware of.
Pulmovac is a vaccine that helps in preventing pneumonia, which is important in individuals with heart conditions to reduce the risk of respiratory infections. Vomimp is a vaccine that helps in preventing influenza, which is crucial in maintaining overall health and reducing the risk of complications in individuals with heart problems. Both vaccines are generally safe and well-tolerated, with common side effects being mild and temporary such as redness or swelling at the injection site, low-grade fever, or body aches. It is recommended for your father to follow the cardiologist's advice and get vaccinated to protect his heart health. The dosage and schedule for these vaccines will be provided by the healthcare provider administering them.
