I've had an echo, ECG, TMT, and blood tests, and everything turned out normal, but I'm still feeling chest pain, sometimes pain in my left hand, and dizziness. Should I do these tests again, or could this all be anxiety-related? I've been through many tests before, and they keep coming back normal. Could this just be anxiety?

It's good that your echo, ECG, TMT, and blood tests have come back normal. Chest pain, left hand pain, and dizziness can sometimes be related to anxiety, but it's important to rule out any other underlying medical conditions. Since you have already done multiple tests before, I recommend consulting with a cardiologist to discuss your symptoms and previous test results. They may suggest further evaluation or prescribe medications like Ativan (lorazepam) for anxiety if needed.

View allI'm a bit confused about the TMT and Echo results for my dad, who's 50. The Echo came back normal with an EF of 60, and the TMT showed good effort tolerance. But there were upsloping ST changes at the peak of the test. The report says it's negative for exercise-induced reversible ischemia. Is it normal to have these upsloping ST changes? Should I be worried about this?
The upsloping ST changes at the peak of the TMT test can be considered normal if the test is negative for exercise-induced reversible ischemia. It is important to correlate these findings with your father's overall clinical history and risk factors for heart disease. In this case, no further intervention may be needed based on the test results provided.

My mom and dad are both senior citizens, and I've been getting a bit concerned about their heart health because there seem to be so many cases of blockages popping up lately. I think catching any issues early on would be really helpful. Also, I've noticed these yellow patches around my mom's eyes, and when I looked it up, it seems like they might be cholesterol deposits or Xanthelasma. Could you suggest what tests we should consider for early detection of any possible issues?
An ecg,lipid panel and echo is advised to the patients.
