I'm really worried because I've heard that heart attack symptoms in women can be different from what men experience. Can you explain what signs I should be looking out for? And how can I tell if chest pain is from a heart attack or just something else? Its been on my mind lately, and I'd love some clarity.

My dad recently had an ECG which turned out normal, but his TMT results showed positive for exercise-induced ischemia. I'm quite worried because his hemoglobin level is really low at 8.8. Do you think he needs an angiogram? I'm not sure what the best next steps are, and would appreciate your guidance.

Correct anemia first then can think to do stress echocardiography....to confirm..but If there are any risk facters like diabetes and hypertension or smoking or obesity or family history & inactive lifestyle...& symptoms of chest pain or breathing difficulty, angiography should be done Anyways need insight on all these & need to see the TMT strips to suggest the next best step.

I'm traveling right now, and I'm a bit worried because my pulse rate is over 90. I've already taken Kipnor TR 40 and Etilaam 0.25. Is this normal for when you're active, or should I be concerned?

The normal pulse rate when you are active can vary depending on individual factors, but typically ranges from 100 to 170 beats per minute. Kipno tr 40 is a brand name for Metoprolol, which is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure and chest pain. Etilaam 0.25 is a brand name for Etizolam, which is a benzodiazepine used to treat anxiety and sleep disorders. Since your pulse rate is above 90 after taking these medications, it is important to monitor your heart rate closely. If your pulse rate remains elevated or if you experience any concerning symptoms, please seek medical attention promptly.
