I'm a bit confused because I recently got a stress test done, and the results said it's negative for inducible ischemia during the TMT test. What does this really mean? Should I be worried or is this a good sign?

View allI'm curious if it's common to have mild mitral regurgitation. Can I live a normal life with it, or do I need to limit activities like exercise or long travel?
Mild mitral regurgitation usually does not cause any symptoms and does not typically require any restrictions on exercise or travel. You can continue to live a normal life without any limitations. However, it is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor the condition and ensure it does not worsen.

I've been dealing with high blood pressure for the last month, consistently around 170110, even after taking my medication. I'm really concerned about why it's not coming down and what I should do next. Could there be something else going on that I need to check?
It seems like your current medication may not be effectively controlling your blood pressure. I recommend discussing with your doctor about adjusting your medication. In addition to your current treatment, adding a medication like Amlodipine (5mg) or Lisinopril (10mg) can help lower your blood pressure. Remember to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your blood pressure levels.

I'm experiencing some pain in my left chest and left hand for the last couple of days, and it feels like it might be related to gas. Can you suggest any remedies or should I be worried about this?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or heartburn. To help relieve your symptoms, you can try taking an antacid medication such as Tums (calcium carbonate) 500mg tablets. You can take 2 tablets as needed for relief of gastric symptoms. Additionally, you can try avoiding spicy and acidic foods, eating smaller meals, and avoiding lying down right after eating. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention.
