I'm a bit concerned about my recent test results and was hoping you could help clarify. I did a 2D echo test, but I'm not sure what counts as normal results for that. Also, I ran for 12 minutes on a stress test machine and I'm wondering what the normal results should look like for that. Can you explain what these tests mean and what I should be looking out for?

I'm a bit confused about the TMT and Echo results for my dad, who's 50. The Echo came back normal with an EF of 60, and the TMT showed good effort tolerance. But there were upsloping ST changes at the peak of the test. The report says it's negative for exercise-induced reversible ischemia. Is it normal to have these upsloping ST changes? Should I be worried about this?

The upsloping ST changes at the peak of the TMT test can be considered normal if the test is negative for exercise-induced reversible ischemia. It is important to correlate these findings with your father's overall clinical history and risk factors for heart disease. In this case, no further intervention may be needed based on the test results provided.

My mom had angioplasty last month, and she's been feeling really nauseous and dizzy recently. Is this something that usually happens after that type of surgery? I'm a bit worried about whether it's part of the recovery or if we should be more concerned.

I've been dealing with high bp since 2017 and have been taking medscinod and nebicard. Everything was stable until I gained around 10kgs after getting married, and now my bp is often spiking to 140150 and 9095. I've started incorporating some physical activity and diet control into my routine. Do you think I should consider changing my medications along with these lifestyle changes?
