I'm really confused about what the normal blood pressure value is supposed to be. I've read online that it's 12080, but then I've also heard from doctors that 14090 is normal, and some even say up to 160100 isn't a problem. I'm really anxious about this and just want to know what the actual normal range for blood pressure is.

I'm a bit concerned about a TMT test I did a couple of days ago. The results came back as a normal stress test, but while reaching a 100 heart rate during the test, I experienced some mild dizziness that lasted for about 2 minutes. It was manageable and got better after I rested. I could walk and move around fine afterward, but I had a mild headache for the rest of the day. The next day, I felt completely okay, and there were no other symptoms. Should I be worried about this, or is it normal for TMT results? Please check my report and advise.

Based on your description and the results of your TMT test showing a normal stress test with no inducible ischemia, it is reassuring that there are no significant cardiac issues detected. The mild and manageable dizziness you experienced towards the end of the test may have been due to the physical exertion during the test, which is not uncommon. It is good to hear that the symptoms resolved after resting and that you were able to walk and move without any difficulty. The mild headache you experienced throughout the day could also be related to the physical stress of the test. It is positive that you felt completely alright the next day and that no other symptoms occurred. I would recommend staying hydrated and getting adequate rest. If you experience similar symptoms during physical exertion in the future, it would be advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation. Overall, based on the information provided, there does not appear to be a significant concern, but it is always important to listen to your body and seek medical advice if needed."

I'm really worried about the possibility of having plaque in my arteries or if my coronary artery might be narrowing. Could you please tell me what tests I should consider to find this out? I just want to make sure I'm covering all the bases and keeping my heart healthy.

The tests to detect plaque in arteries or narrowing of coronary arteries include: 1. Coronary Angiography: This test involves injecting a contrast dye into the coronary arteries and taking X-ray images to visualize any blockages or narrowing. 2. CT Coronary Angiography: This non-invasive test uses a CT scanner to create detailed images of the heart and blood vessels to detect any plaque buildup. 3. Stress Test: This test measures the heart's response to physical activity or medication to detect any reduced blood flow to the heart muscle, which can indicate narrowing of the coronary arteries. 4. Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS): This test uses sound waves to create detailed images of the inside of the coronary arteries to detect any plaque buildup. 5. Cardiac Catheterization: This invasive test involves inserting a catheter into the coronary arteries to measure blood flow and detect any blockages or narrowing. These tests can help diagnose plaque buildup or narrowing of the coronary arteries.
