I'm really worried about some recent health reports I've got. My TSH levels were high at 10.3, so my doctor increased my thyroid medication from 100mg to 125mg. Then after about 25 days, my TSH dropped to 0.70, and I was advised to cut down the medication to 75mg. I'm also confused because my TMT test came back positive for inducible myocardial ischemia, but my ECG and echocardiography were normal. The doctor is now suggesting I go for an angiogram. I'm really anxious about whether these thyroid level changes could be affecting my TMT results. Should I be rushing into getting the angiogram, and is there a real chance of having heart issues even though the ECG and echo were normal? Any advice would be really appreciated.

My cousin just got his echo report back and the doctor said everything looks normal. He didn't prescribe any medication. His BP is normal and he doesn't have any sugar issues either. Should we be worried about anything? Is there something serious we're missing? Is this totally curable?

Based on this information, there doesn't seem to be anything serious to be concerned about. It's always a good sign when test results come back normal. As there are no specific medications prescribed, it seems like there is no immediate medical treatment required. It's important to continue with regular check-ups and a healthy lifestyle to maintain good health. If any symptoms or concerns arise in the future, it's best to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm feeling some pain on the left side of my chest. It's not constant, and sometimes it just goes away on its own. I'm kinda worried about what this could mean or if I should be concerned. Any ideas on what might be going on?

I'm having this tight feeling in the left side of my chest for a while now, and it's making me really uncomfortable. I had an echocardiography and an ECG done, and they both came back normal. Do you think I should get a lung test?
