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.

I recently had an ECS done, and the report mentioned it was an "unconfirmed report." I'm just wondering, what exactly does this mean? Should I be concerned, or is everything likely okay?

Repeat ecg is advised.

At what heart rate should you go to the hospital?

If your heart rate is consistently above 100 beats per minute or below 60 beats per minute (and you're not an athlete) and if you are experiencing any symptoms such as dizziness, palpitations, chest pain, breathlessness then you may need to visit a hospital.

I've been dealing with this sharp pain in the upper left side of my chest for about 56 days now, and it's kind of freaking me out. It just hits out of nowhere, especially when I cough or change position in bed. What could this be, and should I be worried?

It sounds like you may be experiencing musculoskeletal chest pain, which can be caused by inflammation of the muscles or tendons in the chest wall. To help relieve the pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) as needed. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area may also help relax the muscles and reduce pain. Make sure to rest and avoid activities that worsen the pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it's important to see a doctor for further evaluation and management.
