I'm really concerned about my dad's health. His LVEF is at 25, and the cardiologist is recommending an angiography. Im not sure what we should do next. Could you give me some guidance on this?

Question

If my ECG and TMT tests are normal, could there still be a risk of heart issues? Also, how long is the TMT test considered valid?

I'm feeling like there's something stuck in my throat. I've got this chest pain right in the middle, and it feels tight. I even feel like I'm suffocating and like I can't breathe properly, like something bad might happen. Why could this be happening?

Question

I'm a bit concerned about my recent heart test results. I'm 53, usually pretty active, and not a blood pressure patient. My 2D echo came back with some terms that are worrying me a little, like concentric LVH and something about my aortic valve being sclerotic. The report mentioned a murmur sound, mild PAH, and a note about grade 1 LVDD. My LVEF is at 60%. Can you help me understand what all this means, especially the LVH and the sclerotic aortic valve? Should I be worried about these findings, even though the report says no RWMA, no effusion, and no clots?
