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?

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.

I've been experiencing this sharp, pricking pain in my chest for about a week, and I'm really not sure what it could be. It doesn't stay in one spot and sometimes it's on the left, sometimes on the right, near the left breast, or even below the shoulder. I got both an ECG and an echo, and they both came back normal, but I'm still worried. Any idea what might be going on?

I'm experiencing some pain in my shoulder and arm, and it seems to be affecting the left side of my chest too. It's making it a bit hard to breathe. My current weight is 68 kg. Can you help me figure out what this might be?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a heart condition. The combination of pain in the left shoulder, arm, and chest, along with breathing problems, could be indicative of a heart issue. One common condition that presents with these symptoms is angina. I recommend you to take Aspirin 325mg immediately and call emergency services. It is important to seek medical attention promptly in such cases.

I'm 25 and my blood pressure was 160100. Should I be worried about this? I spoke to a doctor and got prescribed Ciplar 40 for a month. Now my BP's gone down to 13090. What should I do next?
