Four stages of congestive heart failure are Stage A, B, C, D. Stage A and B are pre heart failure stages when persons do not have symptoms but have predilection to heart failure such as Diabetes, Hypertension, obesity, alcohol abuse, heart blocks and family history of heart failure. Stage C is when persons have symptoms, diagnosed with heart failure and responding to treatment. Stage D is when persons have advanced symptoms that may not get better with treatment.

Peanut butter has fiber and proteins which are healthy and few studies showed that it can reduce mean diastolic blood pressure. And as long as they don't contain hydrogenated fat, nut butters including peanut butter won't cause problems for your cholesterol levels too.

My dad is 55 and just had a treadmill test that showed inducible ischemia. The doctor recommended an angio does this mean there's a blockage? Can this be treated with meds or will he need surgery? If it gets treated, could it come back later? Also, does this raise his risk of heart failure? Really concerned about what this means for him.
TMT positive suggests that certain part of the heart is not receiving adequate blood supply in the time of stress which means that there has to be some amount of blockage in the blood vessels supplying blood to the heart so 2 things should be done Medications like blood thinners cholesterol and others heart medication used to be started and will continue for at least a long time if not life long And a coronary or CT angiography needs to be done to check the percentage of blockage and the location and intensity of severity of disease according to to which the treatment will depend so I will advise you to get the above tests done as soon as possible because he carries a risk of eminent heart attack with TMT positive

I'm really struggling with severe chest pain but all my heart tests like ECG, 2D Echo, and TMT showed nothing wrong. I'm also dealing with frequent panic attacks and heart palpitations, which is really concerning. I've been taking anti-inflammatory meds for about 10 days, but there's been no improvement. Could you please advise me on what I should do next?
