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've been having some chest pain for the last few days and it's really been bothering me. Sometimes it feels uncomfortable and along with the chest pain, I get this ache in my arm joint or at the back of my neck, and it's just getting worse at times. The pain tends to last for a few hours. What could be causing this and should I be concerned?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of angina, which is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle. In such cases, it is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment. Common medications prescribed for angina include: - Nitroglycerin: 0.4mg sublingual tablet, to be taken as needed for chest pain - Aspirin: 81mg to 325mg daily, to help prevent blood clots - Beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol): Dosage varies, to help reduce heart rate and blood pressure - Calcium channel blockers (e.g. Amlodipine): Dosage varies, to help relax blood vessels It is important to seek medical attention to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and receive appropriate treatment.

I'm curious about whether there's a connection between having a hysterectomyspecifically when the ovaries are still healthyand the potential for heart-related issues down the line. Can you shed some light on this for me?
The removal of the uterus, known as a hysterectomy, is not directly correlated with an increased risk of heart-related diseases in the future, as long as the ovaries are functioning normally. However, there may be an increased risk of cardiovascular disease if both the uterus and ovaries are removed before natural menopause, due to the sudden decrease in estrogen levels. If the ovaries are intact and functioning normally after a hysterectomy, the risk of heart-related diseases is not significantly increased.
