I'm really worried because my dad's having some mild chest pain. The doctor suggested an X-ray and then mentioned a CT-guided FNAC, but we're stuck since there aren't any clinics nearby that offer this procedure. On top of that, we're not in a strong financial position. Can you guide me on what we should do next? I'm feeling pretty lost right now.

My dad's treadmill test results came back with a positive result, and the doctor mentioned he might need an angiography. The TMT report shows an ST depression of 1.5 to 2 mm. I'm really concerned about what this all means. Is this depression considered mild, or does it indicate a high possibility of blockage?

The ST depression of 1.5 to 2 mm on the TMT report indicates a moderate level of ischemia, suggesting a significant possibility of blockage in the coronary arteries. It is important to follow up with the angiography as recommended by the doctor to further evaluate the extent of blockage and determine the appropriate treatment. In the meantime, medications like Aspirin 75mg and Clopidogrel 75mg can be prescribed to reduce the risk of clot formation.
