View allI'm a bit confused because I recently got a stress test done, and the results said it's negative for inducible ischemia during the TMT test. What does this really mean? Should I be worried or is this a good sign?
normal
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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

I've noticed over the last couple of days that my blood pressure has been lower than usual. My systolic pressure is hovering between 90 and 100, and the diastolic numbers are around 50 to 60. I'm a bit concerned about what's causing this drop. What might be going on and what should I do about it?
Low blood pressure, with systolic pressure between 90 to 100 mmHg and diastolic pressure between 50 to 60 mmHg, can be caused by various factors, including dehydration, certain medications, heart conditions, endocrine issues, or nutritional deficiencies. To address this, ensure you are well-hydrated and consider consuming a balanced diet with adequate salt intake. Avoid sudden changes in posture, such as quickly standing up from a seated or lying position. It's essential to consult with your healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause of your low blood pressure and receive appropriate advice or adjustments to any current medications.
