I'm feeling a bit worried and would like some advice. I tested positive on December 19th and my CT scan shows corads 4. I've been diabetic for 10 years and had a heart blockage about 5 months ago. Recently, my D-dimer level is at 0.34, and my sugar levels are high, with an HBA1c of 8.9 and an average blood glucose of 208. Right now, I don't have any symptoms, but given my medical history, do you think I should consider hospitalization?

I'm really worried because my echo showed mild TR, and I've been stressed ever since. Googling it made things worse, and now it's all I can think about. Lately, I have this constant chest pain and am terrified of a heart attack. It's making my life unbearable. What should I do?

It sounds like you are experiencing a lot of anxiety and stress related to your health concerns. To help manage your symptoms, I recommend starting with lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, stress management techniques, and a healthy diet. Additionally, you can take medication such as anxiolytics like Xanax (alprazolam) 0.25mg to help with your anxiety symptoms. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and management.
