I've been experiencing chest pain on the left side for about 8 months now. I've had an ECG and an Echo, and both came back normal. I even did a TMT test, and it was negative too, even though it showed a heart problem. But I'm still having this chest pain. Could you shed some light on what might be going on? It's really concerning.

I'm really worried about my wife. She's 63 and her blood pressure reading is 14090. She's been taking Amlokind 2.5 mg like the doctor advised, but I'm not sure if this reading is okay for her age. Our doctor said it's normal, but I just want to double-check. Is there anything else we should be doing or watching out for?

I'm a bit concerned because my triglycerides are higher than they should be, but I don't have any symptoms. What could be causing this and what can I do to improve my levels?

Ezetimibe (brand name Zetia) can be helpful in lowering triglyceride levels. You can take Ezetimibe 10 mg once daily to help reduce your triglyceride levels. Additionally, incorporating lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet low in saturated fats and regular exercise can also be beneficial in managing high triglycerides.

I'm trying to figure out how long the results of a treadmill test (TMT) are valid. If I keep up a pretty active lifestyle, when would be a good time to consider getting another TMT done for just a regular check-up? Would love any advice on that!
