I've done all the tests like an ECG, echo, and TMT, and they all came back normal, but I've been having this pain on my left side of the chest for a month now. I'm worried because it feels like it might be leading up to a heart attack. Could it still be something heart-related even if the tests were okay?

Since your ECG, echo, and TMT results are normal, your chest pain may not be related to a heart attack. However, it is important to further evaluate the cause of your chest pain. You can try taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed for the chest pain. If the pain persists or worsens, you may consider taking an antacid like omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once a day to see if it helps with the pain. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and stress management may also be beneficial.

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.

I'm really confused about my recent medical test results. I initially went to the doctor for a gastric problem, and they told me to take a troponin test. The result came back positive, with a level of 0.03, which worried me. But then, my family doctor suggested I get a second opinion, so I went to MMM Chennai on the same day, and their test showed a negative result. Now I'm not sure which result to believe or what steps I should take next. Could you help me figure out what I should do?
Troponin is a cardiac marker used to diagnose heart conditions. In your case, since there is a discrepancy between the two test results, it is important to consider further evaluation. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a detailed assessment. In the meantime, you can consider taking medications like Aspirin 75mg once daily and Clopidogrel 75mg once daily to prevent any potential cardiac issues while awaiting further evaluation.

My mom's blood pressure spiked to 170100, and the doctor suggested she take Telma 40 mg once daily. It's already been five days, but her BP hasn't budged. Should I think about checking back in with the doctor for a medication switch, or is it normal for the meds to take a bit longer to work?
