I'm really worried about my dad. He just had a TMT test and they've said it's positive for inducible myocardial ischemia. I've attached the report here. Can you take a look and help me understand what's going on? What steps should we take to make sure he gets better quickly?

I'm dealing with some slight chest pain and noticed it happens when I'm not breathing fully, like my breath feels kind of incomplete. It's been going on for the past month and sometimes can last the whole day. I'm worried and not sure what's going on. Could you give me some advice on this?

I'm experiencing some pain in my chest on the right side of my body, especially when I take a deep breath. It's hard to pinpoint the exact spot, but it feels like it's near the upper part of my back. The pain gets intense with certain movements and when I breathe deeply. This happened about a year ago too, and the doctor did an ECG, but everything checked out fine back then. I don't have any other symptoms, and everything else seems normal. Could it be from bad posture while sleeping or sitting, or maybe it's a severe acidity problem? What do you think is causing this?

Patient is advised pulmonary function test(PFT).

Is a pacemaker a good option for my dad? He's 61 and had a heart attack in March. His lvef was 15 at the time, and he's also diabetic. I'm worried about his condition and wondering if a pacemaker would really help.

A pacemaker may be helpful in your father's condition, especially if he has a low ejection fraction (15%). In cases of heart attack and heart failure, a pacemaker can help regulate the heart's rhythm and improve its overall function. Additionally, since your father is diabetic, it is important to manage both conditions effectively. In this case, along with a pacemaker, medications such as ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, and diuretics may also be prescribed to help improve heart function and manage diabetes. It is important for your father to follow a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and monitoring of blood sugar levels. Please consult with your healthcare provider for a personalized treatment plan and to discuss the specific brand names and dosages of medications suitable for your father's condition.
