I'm taking some meds for high blood pressure, like METOLAR XR and TELMA 20, and I have a TMT test for a pre-employment check-up coming up. I'm a bit worried because I really can't afford to fail this test. Do I need to stop taking these meds on the day of the test, or will they affect the results? Can you let me know what I should do?

You can continue taking METOLAR XR and TELMA 20 on the day of your TMT test. These medications are commonly used for high blood pressure and should not significantly affect the results of the test. It is important to follow your regular dosage schedule. Good luck with your pre-employment medical test!"

View allI'm trying to figure out what's causing my shortness of breath. If my HRCT scan looks normal, but I'm still experiencing breathing issues and my ECG shows RBBB, what could be going on? Should I consider getting a CT coronary scan to investigate further? I'm really looking for some guidance here.
Pulmonary function test, methacoline challenge test

I had COVID back in May 2021 and was in quarantine. Things were normal until late August when I started having a cold and got treated with antibiotics. After finishing the antibiotics, I noticed this slight pain on the left side of my chest while breathing deeply, as well as pain in my left hand. It's not sharp anymore, just a constant feeling. My chest X-ray came back normal, but the ECG showed Sinus Tachycardia, and sometimes my heart rate spikes. I'm 26, recently quit smoking, and I'm worried if this could be something like COPD or lung cancer. I can hold my breath for over a minute and can exhale in about 15 seconds, so I'm not breathless. But I'm really anxious, my hands and feet get sweaty, and there's this skin issue on my lower foot which makes me think about hyperthyroidism. Could you help me understand what's going on? I'm seriously worried.
no its neither copd or cancer

I've been diagnosed with an incomplete right bundle branch block in my ECG report. Is this something I should be worried about? Is it a heart disorder or a serious issue? What steps should I take next?
Incomplete right bundle branch block is a condition where the electrical impulses in the heart are delayed as they pass through the right bundle branch. It is usually not a serious problem on its own, but it can sometimes indicate underlying heart conditions. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation to determine the underlying cause and appropriate management. In most cases, no specific treatment is needed for incomplete right bundle branch block.
