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'm looking at my ECG report, and it says sinus rhythm with normal complexity, but there's a mention of nonspecific T and ST wave abnormality. Should I be concerned about this? What does it really mean for my health?

I'm looking for a second opinion on a diagnosis we got. There's an 85% blockage in the main artery. Do you think we should go for stenting right away?

In case of 85% blockage in the main artery, stenting is often recommended to improve blood flow and reduce the risk of complications. The medication used for stenting is Clopidogrel (Plavix) 75mg once daily, in addition to Aspirin 81mg once daily. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
