I'm 32 and dealing with anxiety and hypertension. I've been diagnosed with mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy after a 2D echo. My doctor mentioned taking a TMT and prescribed me TelmaCT 4012.5, Inderal 10, and Rosuvastatin 20. Do you think I should go ahead with the TMT? I'm feeling a bit worried about all this.

Since you are already diagnosed with mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy, it is important to follow your doctor's advice and go for the TMT (Treadmill Stress Test) as suggested. This test will help assess your heart's response to physical stress and evaluate any possible blockages in the arteries.

View allI'm wondering about continuing with corbis bisoprolol 5 mg, which I've been taking for a decade now. My blood pressure is normal, and my pulse is hanging around 60. I'm aware that bisoprolol can lower heart rate, and even though I'm not experiencing any issues, I'm curious whether I should consult a doctor about switching medications because of the lower pulse rate. How long is it generally okay to stay on corbis if I'm not having any problems?

I'm worried about my heart. I've done a bunch of tests like ECG, echo, TMT, and stress echo, and everything's come back normal. But every time I have something like gastric pain or even just diarrhea, I can't shake this fear that I'm having a heart attack. Could this be cardiac anxiety, or is there something else I should worry about? Also, my blood tests were normal except my vitamin D was 13.56 Ngml and B12 was 173.8 ofml. Should I be concerned about those levels?
It sounds like you are experiencing significant anxiety about your heart health, despite having normal cardiac test results. This type of anxiety, often referred to as cardiac anxiety or health anxiety, can cause you to worry excessively about having heart problems even when tests repeatedly show that everything is normal. Your low levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (13.56 ngmL) and vitamin B12 (173.8 pmolL) should be addressed, as deficiencies in these vitamins can contribute to overall feelings of fatigue and possibly anxiety. To manage your cardiac anxiety, consider the following steps: 1. Consult a mental health professional: Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can be very effective in managing health anxiety. 2. Lifestyle changes: Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and mindfulness or relaxation techniques can help reduce anxiety. 3. Vitamin supplementation: Your healthcare provider can recommend appropriate vitamin D and B12 supplements to address your deficiencies. Please discuss your anxiety and vitamin deficiencies with your healthcare provider to develop a comprehensive plan for managing your health and anxiety.

I'm experiencing shortness of breath and a tight feeling in my chest, and I've also noticed some pain in my calf muscles when I climb stairs. My heart starts beating really fast too. I've already had an echo stress test and a chest X-ray, and everything came back normal. What could be causing these symptoms? I'm really confused about what's going on.
