I'm really worried about my 62-year-old diabetic relative. He's had angina for over a year, and his ECG showed some troubling signs like a Q wave with T wave inversion. The echocardiogram was apparently normal, but the treadmill test came back positive, and the coronary angiogram revealed triple vessel coronary artery disease. He's stable now, thankfully, but they recommended PCI for the LCx and RCA. I'm just wondering what all this really means and where would be the best place for him to get this treatment? I'm feeling a bit lost here.

View allI recently went through a 2D echo because of some palpitations, and I've had an EKG as well. Plus, I did a stress test a while back. Do these results seem normal to you?
Based on the information provided, I cannot give a definitive answer without reviewing the actual results of your 2D echo, EKG, and stress test. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to interpret the results accurately. If everything looks normal, no further action may be needed. However, if there are any abnormalities or concerns, your doctor may recommend specific medications.

I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure readings over the past two days. They've been around 10476, 11076, 10583, and 10366. This started after I switched my medication from Metoprolol 50 mg to Tazloc CT 406.25 about 10 days ago. Are these readings considered low? Could you please tell me what would be considered low blood pressure?
The blood pressure readings you have provided are within the normal range. Low blood pressure is typically considered to be a systolic pressure less than 90 mmHg and a diastolic pressure less than 60 mmHg. Since your readings are consistently above these values, your blood pressure is not considered low. Regarding the medication change from metoprolol to tazloc CT-406.25, it seems to be working well for you as your blood pressure readings are within the normal range. Keep monitoring your blood pressure regularly and consult your doctor if you have any concerns

I'm trying to make sense of my recent test results. The CT angiography came back normal, but my treadmill test is mildly positive. I don't have any chest pain, my blood sugar is normal, and my lipid profile is good, but I do have high blood pressure. What does this all mean? Should I be worried about the mildly positive TMT even though everything else seems fine? What should be my next steps?
TMT showing mild positive results without chest pain could indicate a potential issue with the heart's blood supply. Since your CT angiography is normal and other parameters like blood sugar and lipid profile are also normal, it's important to focus on managing your blood pressure to reduce the risk of any further heart-related issues. You can start taking Amlodipine 5mg once daily to help control your blood pressure effectively. Regular monitoring of your blood pressure is essential to ensure it stays within a healthy range.
