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.

View allI'm a bit concerned about my latest ECG results, specifically the increased rs ratio in V1. I read that it might suggest an early transition or even a posterior infarct. Could this be related to my hypothyroidism and hypertension? Should I consider getting an echo done to figure this out? I'm really worried and would love some advice.
Yes get a 2D echo done and visit Cardiologist for appropriate management

I'm dealing with severe anxiety and depression symptoms for the past few years, and I've had a couple of panic attacks. Now I'm seeing some ECG changes, but my Troponin levels are within normal limits. Both my ECHO and Angiography came out normal. Does this mean my heart is okay? Is it safe for me to do intense exercise? Sometimes I feel a sharp pain in my chest area that only lasts for a few seconds and goes away quickly. Any idea why my ECG has changed? What can I do about feeling weak all the time? And it's weird, but my feet are always cold. Any thoughts on what's going on?
The ECG changes could be related to your anxiety and panic attacks, but it's important to monitor them closely. To address the sharp pain in your heart area, you can take a low dose of a beta-blocker like Metoprolol (25-50mg) as needed for chest pain relief. For your weakness, you can try taking a daily dose of a multivitamin like Centrum to ensure you're getting essential nutrients. Cold feet can be improved by wearing warm socks and keeping your feet elevated when possible. Regular exercise is beneficial for anxiety and depression, but start with low to moderate intensity workouts and gradually increase the intensity based on your tolerance.
