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.

My recent CRP levels came back high, and I'm pretty worried about what that means for my health. Is there a chance this could lead to something like a heart attack or even cancer? I'm not sure what steps I should take next. Could you give me some advice on how to handle this?

Elevated CRP levels can indicate inflammation in the body, but it is not specific to any particular condition such as cardiac arrest or cancer. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can consider taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) to help with any discomfort. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging.

I've been having this strange cold sensation near my left chest, around the heart area, and it sometimes moves to my arms and legs. Not too long ago, I had heartburn for over three weeks, and my doctor recommended Robo 20 tablets which helped with that. But now, even after an ECG which came back normal, I'm still feeling this odd coldness near my heart. Could you give me some insights or advice on what might be going on?

I'm feeling this heaviness on the left side of my chest and it's getting hard to breathe deeply. I've also got pain shooting down my left arm and into the upper left part of my back. I've already gone through tests like ECG, echo, and TMT, plus a chest X-ray, but everything came back normal. I'm really not sure what my next steps should be. Any idea what could be going on?

Despite normal ECG, echo, TMT, and chest X-ray reports, your persistent symptoms of heaviness in the left side of the chest, shortness of breath, left arm pain, and upper back pain warrant further evaluation; consider consulting a cardiologist
