I've been dealing with chest pain for the past one and a half months. I've had a chest X-ray, ECG, Echo, and TMT done, and all the reports came back normal. I even went to a cardiologist, and he said it's not related to my heart. The pain started about a week after I found out I have high BP. I'm currently taking Prolomet AM, Pantocid IT, Drise 60k, and Rozavel. The pain feels like muscle pain on the upper side of my chest, on both sides. Sometimes, it feels like a pinch all over my chest. It also extends to my underarms and neck occasionally, and I feel tightness, especially on the upper right side of my chest. I sometimes have itching in my chest and sensations below my chin and jawline. What's strange is that I feel a bit better after some physical activity, like exercising or walking. Could you help me figure out what's going on? What should I do next?

All three arteries are blocked at 90, 80, and 80. We're trying to avoid bypass surgery would stenting work in this case? If successful, how long can we expect the stents to last before needing another procedure?

For triple-vessel disease with high blockage, bypass is more durable than stents. Stents may offer short-term relief but restenosis is a risk. A cardiac surgeon should evaluate case specifics.

I'm feeling really concerned about some symptoms I've been having lately. There's this persistent pain on the left side of my chest and in my left arm, and it's been going on for about four months now. I did a TMT test three months ago and it came back negative, but I'm still worried. I got my ECG and Echo done a few days ago and was told it's anxiety. Could you take a look at the results I've attached and let me know what you think?

"Based on your symptoms and previous tests, it seems like you may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain or nerve-related pain rather than a cardiac issue. You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) for the chest and arm pain. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief cream like diclofenac gel to the affected areas. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging. If the pain persists, you should follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management."

I've been tracking my triglycerides, and they were around 260. Lately, I've started doing a brisk walk every day for about 1.5 hours, just following what my doctor suggested. After about 20 days, my triglycerides dropped to 156. Is it normal for them to fall that much, or should I think about getting retested? Also, I'm curious whether high lipid profiles from before can get stuck in the arteries, or do they clear out once the levels go down?

It is possible for your triglyceride levels to decrease with regular exercise like brisk walking. However, it is advisable to repeat the test to confirm the improvement. As for the second part of your question, high lipid profiles can contribute to the buildup of plaque in your arteries over time. Lowering your lipid levels, such as triglycerides, through lifestyle changes and medication can help reduce this buildup and lower the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
