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 mom's ultrasound showed a poor acoustic window because of her body size. The doctor mentioned it might affect the results. I'm really worried does this mean she'll need surgery or can medications help her get better? What are our options here?

We need to see all her reports, examine her once and look into the gravity on her symptoms to decide the course of treatment best for her.

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've been having some on-and-off chest pain and stomach pain for the past two weeks. I'm also noticing some random tingling in different spots on my body and even some pain in my right shoulder that feels like a pulled muscle or maybe even trapped wind. Could all of these symptoms be connected to something significant, or should I not worry too much?

Ecg and cardiac enzymes are advised to tne patient ,cardiologist opinion..
