Why would a TMT test come back positive if the ECG, Echo, and lipid profile tests are all normal? Do we really need the TMT test in this case? Its a bit confusing.

Ideally its not possible,but there is chance of it turning positive,it records rhythms of your heart when physically excited so its good to get tested

View allI'm a bit worried about my blood pressure levels. Do you think it's at a point where I should see a doctor, or are there steps I can take on my own to bring it down? I've also been having some issues with drinking. Would that be affecting my BP too?

I've been dealing with pain in my left hand and left chest even though my 2D echo, TMT, and chest X-ray all came back normal. It's been a couple of months, and I've also got these gaustic issues. I'm taking razol for it, but I'm wondering if you think I should get any more tests done. Could there be something we're missing?
Given your normal 2D echo, TMT, and chest X-ray, yet persistent left hand and chest pains, it is possible that your symptoms are related to gastrointestinal issues, especially since you have been experiencing gastric problems for the past two months and are currently taking Razo-L (rabeprazole). Gastric issues, including acid reflux, can sometimes cause chest pain that mimics heart-related pain. While your current tests are reassuring, if your symptoms persist, it may be helpful to undergo further evaluation such as an upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy to assess for conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or peptic ulcers. Additionally, consider consulting a gastroenterologist to further explore and manage your gastric symptoms.

I had an angiography and the doctor recommended bypass surgery but I don't have any pain right now and can manage my daily routine. However, I notice my breath gets heavy after walking 200-300 meters. Can you suggest a good doctor in Mira Road who specializes in this?
To find a good cardiologist in Mira Road specializing in bypass surgery, it's recommended to seek a second opinion from a different cardiologist in the area. You can also search for cardiologists specializing in bypass surgery through online directories like Justdial or Wockhardt Hospitals.
