I've been a smoker and drank alcohol almost every day for the past decade, dealing with high cholesterol and triglycerides all this time. I just started medication for these issues. Recently, I had a 2D echo and TMT that both came back normal. Can I assume everything's okay with my coronary arteries if both tests look good, especially now that I've quit smoking and drinking?

Based on your recent normal 2D echo and TMT results, it is a positive indication that there may not be significant coronary artery disease present. However, it is important to continue monitoring your cholesterol and triglyceride levels, as well as maintaining a healthy lifestyle without smoking and alcohol consumption. Additionally, regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider are essential to ensure your cardiovascular health remains optimal.

View allI'm a bit concerned about my husband. We checked his blood pressure yesterday, and it was 13392 with a heart rate of 82. Hes not really having any major problems, but lately, he sometimes feels a burning sensation in his chest and a very minor, frequent pain. He does exercise regularly. He's 33 years old now, and about two years ago, his BP was 12080, then last year it was 13080. Do you think we should be worried or get some tests done?
The blood pressure reading of 13392 is slightly elevated, especially the diastolic pressure of 92. Given the history of occasional burning in the chest and minor frequent pain, it would be advisable for your husband to undergo a thorough evaluation. I recommend he consult with a healthcare provider for further assessment. It would be beneficial to perform tests such as an ECG (Electrocardiogram) to assess heart function, as well as blood tests to check for any underlying conditions such as cholesterol levels or thyroid function. Additionally, a stress test may be considered to evaluate his heart's response to physical activity. In the meantime, it is important to continue with regular exercise and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

I'm dealing with anxiety that's causing me to have chest pain, and sometimes my blood pressure goes way up. I've already done an ECG, 2D Echo, and some blood tests because of the pain. Could you take a look at my Echo report and give me some advice? I'm really worried about my health right now.
Based on your symptoms and tests, it seems like you are experiencing anxiety-induced chest pain and fluctuations in blood pressure. It's important to manage your anxiety to alleviate these symptoms. I recommend starting with an anti-anxiety medication such as Xanax (alprazolam) 0.5mg twice daily. Additionally, to help with chest pain, you can take Ibuprofen 400mg as needed for pain relief. It's also important to practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises and mindfulness meditation to help reduce anxiety levels. Regular exercise and a healthy diet can also contribute to overall well-being.
