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.

View allI'm a bit worried because my recent ECG shows a shortened PR interval of 107 ms, and my 2D echo indicates it's 200 GM. I've been diagnosed with mild LVH and currently take Revelol XL 50 and Newtel 20. I'm curious about the risks of having a PR interval less than 120 ms. Do you think I should get more tests?
The PR interval on your ECG report being lower than 120 ms indicates a shortened PR range. This can be a sign of an underlying heart condition. Considering you have mild LVH (Left Ventricular Hypertrophy) and are currently taking Revelol XL 50 (Metoprolol) and Newtel 20 (Telmisartan), it is important to monitor your heart health closely. To address the risk of a shortened PR interval, it is advisable to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation. Additional tests such as a Holter monitor, stress test, or cardiac MRI may be recommended to assess your heart function more comprehensively. It is essential to follow up with your healthcare provider to determine the best course of action based on your individual health status.

I'm really worried about my blood pressure. Are there any known cases of curing essential hypertension? It seems like my sympathetic nervous system is always in overdrive, causing my body to jump into fight or flight mode for no reason. There's no sign of any tumors on my pituitary or adrenal glands, and all my blood tests and ECGs have come back normal. Is it possible to permanently fix this by getting my sympathetic nervous system back to normal?
While essential hypertension may not be "cured" in the traditional sense, it can be effectively managed through a combination of lifestyle changes, stress management, and medication. Working with a healthcare professional to optimize treatment, including controlling SNS overactivity, is important to help manage your blood pressure and prevent complications.
