I'm really worried about what to do if a family member, like my mom or dad, ever has chest pain, starts sweating a lot, or has pain in the arm or shoulder. What if they start vomiting too? I mean, in that moment, can I give them aspirin or sorbitrate? And if so, how much should I give? Could you explain how to properly administer it? I'm a bit anxious about this and not really sure about the right steps.

I'm really concerned because my father just went through a TMT test and his score was 3.52 Mets. The doctor didnt recommend an angiography, but I'm not sure if we should still consider getting one. Could you help me understand what this means and whether we need to take further action?

A Mits value of 3.52 indicates a moderate risk of coronary artery disease. Since the doctor has not suggested angiography, it is likely that the risk is not high enough to warrant further invasive testing at this point. However, it is important to follow the doctor's recommendations and continue with regular check-ups to monitor any changes in the condition. In the meantime, medications such as Atorvastatin 20mg and Aspirin 75mg may be prescribed to manage the risk factors for heart disease.

I'm really worried about this ongoing chest pain I've been having for the last eight months. Sometimes it's sharp and hits right in the center or other areas of my chest, and even my breast. I've also got this pain on the left side of my chest that spreads to my upper back on the same side. I had an ECG and a 2D echo done about five months ago, and everything looked normal then. But this pain really scares me, and I'm not sure what my next steps should be or which specialist I should see. My Spo2 levels are between 94 and 97, and my resting pulse is around 53 to 60 in the early mornings. Could you help point me in the right direction?

Patient is advised cardiac markers, spirometry ad complete blood count.

I'm 52 and had bypass surgery back in 2004. Right now, I'm getting chelation treatment for my heart (35EF). I'm not sure if this is the best option for me can you explain whether chelation treatment is really helpful in my case?

Stop this treatment immediately. At present this treatment is not advocated by any professional cardiac society. U may end up having kidney failure. Always get time tested therapies. If y want u can get second opinion by other certified cardiologist
