I'm feeling palpitations in my jaws and neck, and I'm really concerned. Are these palpitations something that comes and goes, or could they be a permanent issue? Is there a treatment or cure for them?

So, my mom was diagnosed with 80% stenosis in the mid RCA and there's also a 50% instent restenosis in the distal RCA, where she had a stent put in back in 2010. We're a bit confused because one doctor is suggesting she should go through angioplasty again for both areas, while another doctor thinks it's not necessary. This is pretty stressful, and I really want to make the right decision. Could you explain what the typical approach is for handling instent restenosis and how serious this situation looks?
RCA STENOSIS 80% IN MID SEGMENT WILL INFLUENCE EFFECT OF DISTAL STENOSIS. ONCE U OPEN MID RCA LESION WITH BALOON AND DO ANGIOPLASTY THEN CHECK THE INSTENT RESTENOSIS LESION WITH FFR. IF FFR IS MORE THAN O.8 THEN NOTHING FOR DISTAL AND IF FFR IS LESS THAN 0.8 ANGIOPLASTY TO INSTENT RESTENOSIS.

I'm 34 years old and during my routine check-up, the TMT report came back positive. But according to the echo, there's no blockage. My blood pressure before the TMT was 10060. The report also mentioned hypochromic anemia. Can you help me understand what all this means and what I should do next?
"Based on your TMT report showing a positive result and the presence of hypochromic anemia, it is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can start taking a daily low dose of aspirin to help prevent blood clots. Additionally, your doctor may prescribe medications such as atorvastatin to help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. It is also important to address the hypochromic anemia by taking iron supplements such as Ferrous Sulfate 325 mg daily to help increase your red blood cell count. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive treatment plan."
