Question 2

I'm really worried about my mom who's 62. She recently had some chest pain, and her ECG came out abnormal. We consulted with a cardiologist, and they did a TMT test, which was strongly positive. She's also had an echo test done. Now we've been told she needs to go for a CAG angiogram test. I'm just trying to understand how serious her condition might be. Could there be a severe blockage? What do these tests tell us about her heart health?

Accepted Answer

Given the information that your mother's TMT (treadmill test) result is strongly positive and she has had chest pain along with an abnormal ECG, it suggests a significant likelihood of coronary artery disease (CAD). An angiogram (CAG - coronary angiography) is the next appropriate step as it will provide a detailed view of the coronary arteries to identify the presence, location, and severity of any blockages. This test is crucial for determining the best treatment plan, which may involve medications, angioplasty, or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) depending on the findings. Please follow your cardiologist's recommendations and proceed with the angiogram for a definitive diagnosis and treatment plan.

Question 3

I'm 23 and have noticed a persistent dull pain under the second-to-last rib on the left side of my chest, about 23 inches below my left nipple. It's been happening for around 12 days now, mainly during deep breaths or when I try to stretch by pushing my chest out. I've never felt this pain before, and I'm starting to get worried because we do have a family history of high blood pressure and heart attacksmy grandfather and father, specifically. I've also been smoking tobacco for the last three years. Do you think this is something serious I should be worried about?
