I'm having this pain in my left leg that's been bothering me for about 15 days now. I'm 84 and have a history of heart issues, so I'm regularly on medications like Ecospirin, Amlokind for my blood pressure, and some others like Nitrolong and Losar, though I've recently stopped taking Renozex. The pain hits me when I walk. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm really concerned because my TMT came back positive and I've been told I've got a heart problem. What should I do now? How serious is this, and what's the next step?

Based on your positive TMT result and heart problem, I would recommend that you start taking Aspirin 75mg once daily to help reduce the risk of blood clots and improve blood flow to the heart. Additionally, you should also consider taking Atorvastatin 20mg daily to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart complications. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
