I'm 22 and my resting heart rate is 112. Is this something I should be worried about? I haven't had any cholesterol or high blood pressure issues, and there aren't any heart problems in my past either.

View allI was told I need to get a TMT test, but I'm a bit concerned about how it works. Can you tell me how fast the treadmill goes and how long the test usually lasts?
The TMT test, also known as the Treadmill Stress Test, is a common test used to assess the heart's response to stress or exercise. During the test, you will be asked to walk on a treadmill at different speeds and inclines while your heart rate, blood pressure, and ECG are monitored. The test typically starts at a slow pace with little to no incline, and the speed and incline gradually increase every few minutes. The goal is to reach a target heart rate based on your age and fitness level. The test usually lasts between 10-15 minutes. The speed of the treadmill and the incline will be adjusted by the technician conducting the test based on your physical condition and the specific protocol followed by the testing facility. It is important to follow the technician's instructions during the test to ensure accurate results. After the test is completed, the technician will monitor your heart rate and blood pressure as they gradually return to normal. The results of the test will be reviewed by a doctor to assess your heart's response to exercise and determine if there are any abnormalities. I hope this information helps you understand the procedure of the TMT test.

I've been dealing with this nose bleeding issue for years, but after I started taking clopilet, it just seemed to get worse. At first, I was on the 150mg dose with my other meds like ecospirin, but when the bleeding got out of hand, I reduced to 75mg, and still no improvement. I even saw an ENT specialist who gave me a calcium supplement for a bit, but I'm still bleeding. Could the clopilet be causing this, and what else can I do to manage it? I'm kind of stuck here and really need some advice.
The nose bleeding may be due to the antiplatelet medication Clopilet. Since the bleeding continued even after reducing the dosage, it is important to address this issue. I would recommend discussing with your doctor about switching to an alternative antiplatelet medication such as Brilinta (Ticagrelor) or Plavix (Clopidogrel) to see if the nose bleeding improves. Additionally, continue taking Ecospirin as prescribed. If the bleeding persists, further evaluation may be needed to determine the underlying cause of the nose bleeds.
