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 21 and recently, I've been having these awful symptoms like fever, headache, neck pain, and muscle strain for a few days now. My blood pressure was really high at one point, 160 over 100, but it's slightly better now at 140 over 70. However, I'm experiencing some serious chest pain, dizziness, and shortness of breath, which is quite worrying. My hemoglobin level is just 7, and I'm usually pretty active with yoga and cardio workouts. My weight is 52 kg and so is my height in inches, which I know is unusual. Could all of these symptoms be connected, and should I be doing anything specific to address them?

I've had a CT angiogram done two years ago, and it came out normal. But now I've been told I need to repeat the test because my lipid profile is high. I attached my reports from two years ago, and they were the same back then. I'm feeling really worried about this. What do you think is going on?
if your CT angiogram from 2 years ago was normal and your lipid profile is high now, it may be necessary to repeat the CT angiogram to assess for any changes in your cardiovascular health. In the meantime, you can start taking Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help lower your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.
