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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

I've been feeling really breathless for a week now, and it got noticeably worse this morning. Plus, there's this chest pain that came along with it. I haven't noticed any other symptoms, but it's starting to worry me. Could you help me understand what's going on?
I'm sorry to hear you're feeling this way. Breathlessness and chest pain can be concerning symptoms, and its important to rule out any serious issues like a heart or lung condition.

I'm experiencing some pain in my left arm for the past few days, and sometimes I feel it in my chest too. I decided to get an ECG done, and it mentions a short PR interval and short QT interval. Could you take a look at it and let me know what I should do next?
Based on the ECG findings of a short PR interval and short QT interval, it may indicate a potential heart condition. It is important to further evaluate this with additional tests and examinations. In the meantime, to help manage the symptoms of left arm pain and chest pain, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief. However, it is crucial to follow up with a cardiologist for a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate management.
