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 a bit concerned because I just started taking Telma 20mg and today I've been feeling dizzy and really tired. Is that a normal reaction? I checked my blood pressure and it's 14092. What should I do about this?
Starting on Telma (telmisartan) 20mg can sometimes cause side effects like dizziness and fatigue, especially when your body is adjusting to the medication. These symptoms can be more noticeable when standing up quickly or during the initial days of treatment. Your current blood pressure reading of 14092 mmHg indicates that it is still elevated. Its important to monitor your symptoms and blood pressure closely. If the dizziness and fatigue persist or worsen, please contact your healthcare provider to discuss your symptoms and possibly adjust your treatment plan.

I'm a bit worried about my heart because I was told I have left bundle branch block and that I had a silent heart attack, even though I'm not diabetic. I had an angiography done before my knee surgery, and it showed no major blockages, just a 20% one in my right coronary artery. I've also been dealing with hypertension. Can you help me understand what might be causing the LBBB?
Possible causes for left bundle branch block (LBBB) include underlying heart conditions such as coronary artery disease, hypertension, cardiomyopathy, and heart valve disease. Since you mentioned that you are suffering from hypertension, it could be a contributing factor to your LBBB. It is important to manage your hypertension effectively to reduce the risk of further heart complications. In terms of medication, you may benefit from taking an ACE inhibitor like Lisinopril to help control your blood pressure and protect your heart. The typical dosage for Lisinopril is 10-40mg once daily. Additionally, a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol can also be prescribed to help regulate your heart rate and blood pressure. The usual dosage for Metoprolol is 25-100mg once or twice daily. It is essential to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your heart health and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

I'm dealing with this ongoing issue of shortness of breath that just started up recently. It started after I began taking these medicines called Muktavati and Medhavati extra power from Patanjali for my high blood pressure. I was taking one tablet of Muktavati in the morning and one Medhavati at night for about 18 days, stopping on May 21st, 2022. Ever since I stopped, the breathing thing has been happening. What do you think could be going on here? Would really appreciate some guidance.
take pantop 40mg for 3 days
