I'm really concerned about this situation. I recently experienced chest pain and pain in my left hand, so I went to the doctor and had a TMT test done. The results came back positive for exercise-induced myocardial ischemia. What's confusing is that I had a CT Coronary Angiogram back in 2019 and everything was normal then. Could you help me understand what this might mean for my heart health now? I've attached my TMT and Angiogram reports for reference.

View allI'm really concerned about my mom because she's been taking Telmisartan 40 for over a year now. I've noticed she's been feeling fatigued and dizzy, and I'm worried these might be side effects from the medicine. Her blood pressure readings have been normal for a while, so I'm just wondering if it's safe for her to stop taking it?
abruptly discontinuing the medication can lead to rebound hypertension; if her blood pressure remains normal, her doctor may consider gradually tapering off the medication or switching to a different treatment, but it's essential to weigh the potential benefits of stopping the medication against the risks of uncontrolled hypertension.
