I've been feeling some chest discomfort lately and it's got me a bit worried. Back in 2013, I had an angiography after a positive TMT test, but everything was perfectly clear then. Now, my TMT test has come back positive again. I'm wondering what steps I should take next. Do you think I might need another angiography, or is there another approach I should consider?

If you are experiencing chest discomfort and your TMT test has come back positive again, it is advisable to consult your doctor for further evaluation. Another angiography may be recommended to assess the current status of your coronary arteries and determine the appropriate treatment plan. In the meantime, you can take medications like Aspirin 75mg once daily and Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help manage your symptoms.

I've been noticing that when I'm lying down, I can actually feel my heartbeat. Is this what's known as palpitation? It doesn't feel like that scary, pounding sensation, just a slight awareness of my heartbeat. Should I be concerned?

Yes, feeling your heart beat when lying down can be considered palpitations. It is important to monitor your symptoms and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking propranolol 10mg once daily to help with palpitations.
