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.

I'm having this pain in my left leg that's been bothering me for about 15 days now. I'm 84 and have a history of heart issues, so I'm regularly on medications like Ecospirin, Amlokind for my blood pressure, and some others like Nitrolong and Losar, though I've recently stopped taking Renozex. The pain hits me when I walk. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm really concerned about some recent findings on my coronary vessels. I've got an 80% lesion in the LAD vessel from the proximal to the mid-long segment, and then a 70% lesion in the distal long segment. Plus, there's a 90% lesion at the ostium of the D1 small vessel. On top of that, my RCA vessel has a total 100% blockage, but it's still somehow filling via bridging collaterals and retrogradely through the left coronary injection. Should I be worried about these percentages and the way my heart is compensating? What kind of treatment might be recommended in this situation?

The condition you have described is quite serious and involves multiple blockages in your coronary arteries. To address the blockages, a combination of medications and procedures may be necessary. For the 80% lesion in the ostial portion of the LAD 3 vessel, a stent placement procedure may be considered to improve blood flow. Similarly, for the 70% lesion in the proximal to mid long segment of the LAD 3 vessel, another stent placement or angioplasty may be recommended. The 80% lesion in the distal long segment of the LAD 3 vessel may also require intervention such as stenting. For the D1 small vessel with a 90% lesion, a stent placement or angioplasty may be necessary to restore blood flow. The RCA vessel with a 100% lesion in the mid portion may require more aggressive treatment such as bypass surgery. In the meantime, medications like aspirin, clopidogrel, statins, beta-blockers, and ACE inhibitors may be prescribed to manage your condition and reduce the risk of further complications. Regular follow-up with your cardiologist is crucial to monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

I'm really worried about my father. He had coronary thrombosis last January and seemed to recover well, but this morning he's having severe chest pain. The doctor recommended Isordil 5 for intense pain, but it hasn't helped at all. Can you offer some advice on what we should do next?
