I'm trying to figure out the best method or test to determine if my heart is in good condition. I've heard that an echo might not fully guarantee a healthy heart. Can you clarify this for me and maybe suggest other reliable options?

The best way to check the health of your heart is through a combination of tests. One of the most common and effective tests is an ECG (Electrocardiogram), which measures the electrical activity of your heart. Additionally, an Echocardiogram (Echo) can provide valuable information about the structure and function of your heart. To get a comprehensive assessment, you can also consider a stress test to evaluate how your heart performs under physical exertion. These tests, along with blood tests to check cholesterol and other markers, can give a good indication of your heart health.
