I had a TMT test in February 2019 and an Echo in April 2020, and both were normal, but I'm still experiencing a lot of symptoms. I've been having chest discomfort that moves to my throat and arm for over two years now. I get ECGs done twice every month since 2019, and they only show sinus tachycardia. How long should I trust the normal TMT results? Since it's not COVID causing this, I keep wondering if I should repeat the TMT and Echo. What do you think?

View allI'm wondering if Preva and Ecosprin AV are actually the same thing or if they're different medications. I'm also a bit concerned about the side effects. Does one have more side effects than the other? Could you help me understand this better?
Both Preva and Ecosprin AV are different medications with different active ingredients and mechanisms of action. Preva contains the active ingredient Clopidogrel, while Ecosprin AV contains a combination of Aspirin and Atorvastatin. In terms of side effects, both medications can cause side effects, but the specific side effects and their likelihood can vary from person to person. Common side effects of Clopidogrel (Preva) include bleeding, bruising, and stomach upset. On the other hand, common side effects of Aspirin and Atorvastatin (Ecosprin AV) include stomach upset, muscle pain, and liver enzyme abnormalities. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to determine which medication is more suitable for you based on your individual medical history and risk factors.

I've had a CBAG procedure back in 2006 and I'm currently on ATORVA 10 mg, but I'm wondering if it might be better for me to switch to Clopitorva A 75. Can you help me understand the differences and which might be more beneficial for my condition?
Ideally you have to take both,its better to have an openion with cardiologist

I'm having some health anxiety these past few months, especially about my heart, like cardiophobia, I guess. Because of this, I've been experiencing pain in my left hand, from my arm down to my fingers. I'm really worried and can't help but wonder, is this just anxiety causing it, or is there something else going on?
Health anxiety, or cardiophobia, can indeed cause physical symptoms like pain in the left arm, as anxiety can manifest with muscle tension and heightened sensitivity to bodily sensations. Since you have had normal cardiac tests and evaluations, it's likely that anxiety is contributing to your symptoms. It's important to address your anxiety through appropriate methods such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), relaxation techniques, regular exercise, and possibly medication if recommended by a healthcare provider. Consulting with a mental health professional can provide you with tools to manage your anxiety and reduce the physical symptoms you're experiencing.
