I'm thinking about doing a TMT in a week since I've had hyper acidity issues. I've already done tests like a thyroid profile, ECG, and echo, and everything came back normal. A friend suggested I should consider a TMT as well. Do you think there's a chance it might show something positive?

A TMT (Treadmill Test) is commonly used to assess the heart's response to stress and can help diagnose coronary artery disease. Given that your thyroid profile, ECG, and echo are normal, the chances of a positive TMT result are lower. However, it is still important to proceed with the TMT as advised. If you experience hyperacidity during the test, you can take antacids like "Ranitidine" 150mg before the test to help manage the symptoms.

I've been prescribed two different medications, amiodarone and Carloc, and I'm a bit confused. Could you explain how they differ and whether they have similar effects? I'm really curious if they do the same thing or work differently.

I'm a 44-year-old guy and I've been feeling really tired lately. I'm also having a tough time dealing with the cold. Could this be because my cholesterol levels are high? I'm 5 feet 10 inches tall and weigh around 90 kg. How do I figure out if my cholesterol is actually high?
