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 allCan a treadmill test, 2D echo, or ECG detect an 80% heart blockage, or is an angiogram the only way to find this out? I'm really curious because I want to understand what these tests can actually show.
0% heart blockage cannot be directly traced by a treadmill test, 2D echo, or ECG. These tests can provide important information about the heart's function and structure, but they may not definitively show the extent of blockages in the coronary arteries. The gold standard for diagnosing blockages in the arteries is a coronary angiogram (angio). It is an invasive procedure where a dye is injected into the arteries to visualize any blockages. If you suspect significant blockages in your coronary arteries, it is best to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I've had a blood pressure reading of 13585 for the last few days. Is this something I should be concerned about, even though my echo test and ECG came back normal? Is there a way to manage it without medication?

I'm dealing with blood pressure around 15090 and my heart rate seems higher than normal, sometimes going to 100. Two doctors suggested I start on Nebi 2.5mg twice daily, and while it made me feel really tired at first, that went away after two weeks. It's been five months on this medication now, but I'm noticing that my consciousness feels a bit off. I can't work or focus like I used to. What should I do about this?
