I recently had a TMT and an ECG done, and the ECG is attached for reference. The TMT report mentioned no ischemia, but I'm still getting some random chest pains, especially when I'm lost in thought. I've been given an antacid for it. How long is the TMT result considered valid?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The validity of a TMT (Treadmill Test) can vary depending on individual circumstances, but generally, it is valid for 1-2 years for individuals with a low risk of heart disease. Since your TMT report shows "No Ischemia" and you are experiencing random chest pain, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can continue taking the antacid as prescribed. If the chest pain persists or worsens, please consult your doctor for further assessment and management.

View allI'm experiencing a fast heart rate between 130-150 beats per minute, even though I'm not feeling anxious or tense. I recently had a 2D echo, and it came back normal. Could you let me know what medicine I could take to manage this when my heart rate spikes, and what might be causing it?
When your heart rate increases significantly despite not feeling anxious or tense, it could be due to a condition called tachycardia. In such cases, you can use a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol. The usual dosage for Metoprolol in this case would be 25-50mg orally, which can help slow down your heart rate and reduce the workload on your heart. It is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

I'm really worried after seeing my father's recent echo report. It mentioned mild concentric LV hypertrophy and Grade 1 LV diastolic dysfunction. His LVEF is at 75, which I think is good? But then there are terms like MV, AE, AV normal, and TDI EE 10.18, and I'm not sure what all that means. Can you help me understand the report and what it means for his heart health?
That says he is having mild left ventricular hypertrophy about wich you no need to worry and rest all the parametres are normal,have a healthy lifestyle,follow your doctors advice

I'm having these weird palpitations and short jerks in my chest lasting just a couple of seconds, but it's not like they happen at any specific time. It really feels awkward when it happens, almost like my heart stops for a moment. What's strange is that even though I exercise regularly, I don't feel any pain in my chest. I've done ECG, 2D Echo, and Holter tests, and they all came back normal. So, Im really wondering, do you think I might have some sort of cardiac blockage? Are these episodes a sign of something serious like a cardiac arrest in the future? Or if it's not something major with my heart, what else could be causing these jerks and palpitations?
Thta could be due to anxiety ,vsist Psychiatrist for appropriat ehelp
