I'm feeling a bit worried because I've had this pain in the middle of my chest, and when I got an ECG, it showed an abnormal Q wave in lead 3. It's the same result as a year ago when I had an ECG and then went through a TMT and an echo which both came back normal. Should I be getting another echo and TMT done now, or is it okay to hold off? Any guidance would be really helpful.

Based on your history of chest pain and abnormal q wave in lead 3 on ECG, it is important to continue monitoring your heart health. Since your previous TMT and echo were normal, it is reassuring. However, given the persistent abnormal q wave on ECG, it would be advisable to repeat the TMT and echo to ensure there have been no changes in your heart function. I recommend you to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and to discuss the need for repeating the tests.

I'm a bit confused about my previous diagnosis of mild mitral valve regurgitation. My old doctor assured me everything would be fine, but suggested a check-up around 2017-18 just for peace of mind. Another doctor on Practo agreed there was nothing major to worry about. But, sometimes I still feel something around the valve and it's kind of stuck in the back of my mind. Can you help me find some reputed doctors or clinics in Bangalore to get this checked out? I'd really appreciate any assistance with this.
