So I got my ECO and TMT tests done on June 14th, and everything came back normal. My blood pressure kind of bounces between 120145 and 8092. Since the TMT was negative, does this mean I definitely don't have any blockages? Should I be redoing these tests given my blood pressure numbers? I'm just trying to figure out if there's anything else I should be doing or checking on.

Hi, based on your normal Eco and TMT results from June 14th and considering your blood pressure readings between 120-145 and 80-92, as well as the negative TMT result indicating no blockage, there may not be an immediate need to repeat the same tests. However, it is important to continue monitoring your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance on managing your blood pressure. If you have any concerning symptoms or if your blood pressure readings significantly change, it would be advisable to consult with your doctor for a personalized assessment and recommendations.

View allWhen I lie down and then get up to walk, I experience a heavy feeling or difficulty in breathing for about 2 to 3 minutes. I also notice a heaviness in my upper abdomen during this time. After those few minutes, I feel normal again. I've had an X-ray, CT scan, ECG, and a 2D echo, and all the results came back normal. Should I be worried about this, or am I just overthinking it?

I'm concerned about my blood pressure, which is reading quite high at 150100. The thing is, I don't really feel stressed or have any other symptoms like dizziness or weakness. I've always had a pretty sedentary lifestyle, but I've started going for morning walks. Do you think that could help bring my BP down to a normal level?
It's good that you have started morning walks to improve your lifestyle. Along with regular exercise, it's important to monitor your blood pressure regularly. In addition to physical activity, you can also consider incorporating a low-sodium diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. If your blood pressure remains high, your doctor may recommend medication such as Losartan 50mg once daily to help lower it. Regular monitoring and follow-up with your healthcare provider are essential to manage your blood pressure effectively.

I'm really concerned about my dad. He had a massive cardiac attack and the doctors told us that all three of his arteries were blocked. They managed to save him by placing a stunt in one of them. I'm just wondering, what do you think would be the best way forward now? Should we consider bypass surgery, or would it be better to place stunts in the other two arteries too? It's a lot to think about, and I just want to make sure we're making the right decision for his health.
In this case, since your dad already had a stent placed in one of the blocked arteries, the most suitable course of action going further would be to assess the condition of the other two blocked arteries. If the blockages are severe and bypass surgery is deemed necessary, then bypass surgery may be recommended. However, if the blockages are suitable for stenting, then placing stents in the other two arteries may be a more suitable option. It is important to consult with your cardiologist to determine the best course of action based on your dad's individual medical condition.
