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 a bit worried after getting my TMT results back. It came borderline positive for inducible ischemia with max METS at 9.40 and some mild STT changes in the inferolateral leads. Does this mean there's a serious issue with my heart? Is the positive stress test something to be very concerned about, or could there be less serious reasons for these results? What should I be doing next?

I'm feeling this weird pain and burning sensation in my chest, along with some restlessness. It's not happening all the time, but it's definitely concerning. Could you please suggest what might be going on and what I should do about it?
It sounds like you might be experiencing acid reflux or mild gastritis, which can cause chest discomfort and burning. Avoid spicy or oily foods, eat smaller meals, and don't lie down immediately after eating. If the pain persists or worsens, consult a doctor for further evaluation.

I've been experiencing this sharp, pricking pain in my chest for about a week, and I'm really not sure what it could be. It doesn't stay in one spot and sometimes it's on the left, sometimes on the right, near the left breast, or even below the shoulder. I got both an ECG and an echo, and they both came back normal, but I'm still worried. Any idea what might be going on?
