What does it mean when my CT coronary angiography says there's a type 2 issue in the LAD? I've been dealing with chest pain and palpitations, and I'm really worried about what this could imply for my heart health. Could you help me understand what this result means and how serious it might be?

In your CT coronary angiography report, "LAD type 2" refers to a variation in the branching pattern of the left anterior descending artery. This variation is usually considered a normal anatomical variant and does not necessarily indicate any disease or blockage in the artery. It is important to correlate this finding with your symptoms of chest pain and palpitations. For chest pain and palpitations, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen for chest pain and beta-blockers like metoprolol for palpitations. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
