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've had several EKGs, and they keep showing I have inverted T wave lines. Ive also done a few stress tests, which were said to be normal. But then I ended up in the ER with chest pain, and the doctor there said I need a heart cath because my stress tests werent completely normal. One doctor says they're normal, and another one disagrees. I'm only 45 years old, and I'm just wondering if a heart cath is really necessary. I've got an appointment with a cardiologist in 9 days, and I'm feeling a bit nervous about all this. What do you think?
ECHO is advised for further management.

I'm a 39-year-old guy dealing with high blood pressure, and I've been on telmisartan 40 mg for like five years. Just recently, I found out I have Grade 1 Left Ventricular Hypertrophy. I don't have diabetes but my cholesterol is on the higher side, and I'm taking medication for anxiety too. I'm really stressed about this LVH diagnosis and can't help but wonder about my life expectancy with it. Is this something that's going to affect me in just the next couple of years? I'm from Australia and my appointment with the cardiologist is still two months away, so any insight before then would mean a lot to me.

I'm kind of worried because all of a sudden my heart started racing, and when I went to the hospital, they checked my blood pressure and gave me these BP tablets. I've been taking them, but I'm wondering if I should keep taking them or if it's okay to stop. What should I do?
Sudden increase in heart rate can be concerning. It's important to follow the advice of your healthcare provider regarding the medication. If you were given medication for high blood pressure, it's important to continue taking it as prescribed. Stopping the medication abruptly can be harmful. If you have any concerns or experience any side effects, please consult your healthcare provider for further guidance.
