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 a bit worried about my ECG report that mentions 'mild ST depressions in the inferolateral leads.' Is this something serious that I need to be concerned about? Can it be fixed or managed in some way? I'm not really sure what it means and would love some guidance.
Mild ST depressions in the inferolateral leads on an ECG can indicate underlying issues such as myocardial ischemia (reduced blood flow to the heart muscle), which can be a cause for concern. It's important to follow up with your cardiologist for a comprehensive evaluation to determine the exact cause. They may recommend further tests such as an echocardiogram, stress test, or coronary angiography to assess the severity and plan appropriate treatment. Management may include lifestyle changes, medications, or procedures to improve blood flow to the heart. Please discuss these findings with your healthcare provider for personalized advice and treatment.

I'm really concerned about my mom's health after her recent checkup. She's got this LDL cholesterol level of 232, and the echocardiogram showed something called Trivial TR Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. They also mentioned LVEF at 62 and that the TMT was positive for inducible ischemia. She's 49, doesn't have blood pressure or sugar issues, but the doctor suggested an angiogram to look further into it. I'm wondering if it's really necessary?
yes angiogram is advised to the patient..

I'm wondering if having sex about 12 hours before a fasting blood test for a lipid profile could affect the results. Could you shed some light on this?
