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 dealing with some persistent swelling in my feet and ankles that's been going on for over three months now. I'm currently on calaptin 240sr, aztor 10, and nexito forte. Should I be concerned about any side effects from these meds, or could something else be causing this swelling? Also, do you have any suggestions on what I should do next?

My dad had a major heart attack a couple of months ago, and the angiography showed some serious stuff. It mentioned a 90% blockage in the mid LAD and another in the early OM1, plus an 80% blockage in OM2. They also did a PTCA with DES on the LAD shortly after the attack. I'm really worried and wondering what should we do next?

Can an angiogram lead to cardiac instability? What might happen to other parts of the body if the heart becomes unstable? Could it cause things like clumping of the intestines, severe stomach pain, or nausea? Just trying to understand the possible effects, you know?
Angiogram is a diagnostic procedure that involves injecting a contrast dye into the blood vessels to visualize the heart's blood flow. While rare, there is a small risk of cardiac instability during an angiogram, which may include irregular heartbeats or changes in blood pressure. Cardiac instability can lead to decreased blood flow to other organs, potentially causing symptoms such as dizziness, shortness of breath, and chest pain. In severe cases, it can result in organ damage or failure. Will it cause clumping of intestine, severe stomach pain, nausea, etc.? Cardiac instability itself is unlikely to cause clumping of the intestine, severe stomach pain, or nausea. However, if there are complications during or after the angiogram procedure, such as a reaction to the contrast dye or a blood clot formation, it may indirectly affect the gastrointestinal system and lead to symptoms like abdominal pain or nausea. If you experience any unusual symptoms after an angiogram, it is important to seek medical attention promptly.
