I'm a bit worried because I had an Eco ECG TMT and some blood tests done about a month ago, and everything came back normal. But now, for the past two days, I've been having this pain in my left chest, especially when I'm trying to sleep. It's hard to get comfortable, and breathing seems to make it worse when I'm lying down. Any idea why this is happening if all my tests were normal? Could you suggest any painkillers that might help?

View allI've got a situation with my aunty that's worrying me a bit. She's been having chest pain and even though the doctor said her ECG and 2D echo are normal, the TMT showed some changes. She's 46, and I'm just wondering what this could mean? Should we be concerned about the TMT results despite the other normal tests? Any insight you could give would be really appreciated.
Hello, based on the information provided, it seems like your aunt is experiencing chest pain despite normal ECG and 2D echo results. In this case, the doctor may consider prescribing anti-anginal medications to help with the chest pain. One common medication that can be prescribed is "Nitroglycerin" sublingual tablets, to be taken as needed for chest pain. The usual dosage is 0.3 to 0.6 mg sublingually every 5 minutes as necessary, up to 3 doses. Additionally, the doctor may also consider prescribing medications like "Beta-blockers" such as Metoprolol, starting at a low dose of 25 mg once daily and titrating up as needed. These medications can help manage chest pain and improve symptoms.

I've been taking medicine for blood pressure for a few years now, and I'm 45. Lately, even short walks or a couple of stairs have been really tough. I used to handle longer walks and more stairs without any issues. I had an ECG done three months ago, and it looked normal. I don't have trouble just going about my day, but my blood sugar is kind of borderline too. I'm wondering what test would be better to figure out what's going onan echo or a TMT?
Based on your symptoms and medical history, it would be advisable to go for a TMT (Treadmill Test) to assess your cardiac function and determine if there are any underlying issues causing your symptoms. TMT is a stress test that helps evaluate how well your heart responds to exertion. It can provide valuable information about your heart's health and function, especially in cases where there are symptoms like shortness of breath and decreased exercise tolerance. It is a non-invasive test that can help in diagnosing any potential heart problems.
