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 really confused. My ECG, TMT, and 2D Echo all came back negative, but I'm still experiencing chest pain and pain in my left upper arm. What should I do next?
This could be due to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). You can try taking over-the-counter medication like Imodium (Loperamide) 2mg after meals to help reduce the frequency of bowel movements. Additionally, make sure to drink plenty of water and eat a high-fiber diet to regulate your bowel movements.

I'm a bit worried because my recent ECG shows a shortened PR interval of 107 ms, and my 2D echo indicates it's 200 GM. I've been diagnosed with mild LVH and currently take Revelol XL 50 and Newtel 20. I'm curious about the risks of having a PR interval less than 120 ms. Do you think I should get more tests?
The PR interval on your ECG report being lower than 120 ms indicates a shortened PR range. This can be a sign of an underlying heart condition. Considering you have mild LVH (Left Ventricular Hypertrophy) and are currently taking Revelol XL 50 (Metoprolol) and Newtel 20 (Telmisartan), it is important to monitor your heart health closely. To address the risk of a shortened PR interval, it is advisable to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation. Additional tests such as a Holter monitor, stress test, or cardiac MRI may be recommended to assess your heart function more comprehensively. It is essential to follow up with your healthcare provider to determine the best course of action based on your individual health status.
