My mom recently had a TMT test, and it showed a mild positive for inducible ischemia. The thing is, she didnt feel any pain or discomfort during the test. The doctor suggested we should go for an angiogram, but she's planning to go abroad for six months. Is it okay if we wait and do the angio after she comes back? Should we be concerned about waiting that long?

It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding the timing of the angiogram. However, in cases of mild positive inducible ischemia without symptoms, it may be possible to wait for 6 months before undergoing the angiogram. It is important to monitor your mother's symptoms and follow up with her doctor regularly during this time. If any new symptoms develop or if there are any changes in her health status, it is important to consult with her doctor earlier.

View allI'm feeling really stressed because I couldn't sleep last night and today I found out my blood pressure is 150100. I'm currently taking Metosortan 50 every day, and it usually keeps my BP in check. Can you recommend something to lower my blood pressure and help me get a good night's sleep?
It seems like you are experiencing elevated blood pressure and difficulty sleeping. To help lower your blood pressure and improve your sleep, I recommend adding a medication like Amlodipine 5mg to further control your blood pressure. Additionally, you can consider taking a medication like Zolpidem 5mg to help with your sleep. However, please consult your healthcare provider before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe and appropriate for you.

I'm having some pain on the left side of my chest and it's really worrying me. I'm also diabetic and on top of that, I'm supposed to have cervical surgery soon. Could these chest pains be related to my diabetes or maybe the upcoming surgery? I'm kind of anxious about it all and I'm wondering what I should do next.
Sometimes pain in the left side of the chest can be concerning, especially if you have a history of diabetes and are scheduled to undergo cervical surgery. This pain could be due to various reasons such as musculoskeletal issues, heart problems, or even related to your diabetes. It's important to get this evaluated by a healthcare professional. To help with the pain, you can take acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 6 hours as needed. However, if the pain persists or worsens, it is important to seek medical attention promptly.

I'm really stressed out because, for the past six months, I've been dealing with these panic attacks that make me super anxious. I'm a 28-year-old guy and generally healthy. A few days back, I saw a doctor who recommended I get an echocardiogram and some blood tests like CBC, creatinine, and RBS. When I went in for the Echo, I was really scared, and my heart was racing due to my phobia. The results came back mostly normal, except they mentioned something about TR mild with mild PAH. Should I be worried about this leading to complications? And what can I do to treat it?
