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.

I've been having chest and upper back pain for about 34 months now. I've done the ECG twice, and the results were normal, and my X-ray showed nothing unusual. But the pain keeps spreading more and more each day and can start or stop at any time. I don't have cough, fever, or vomiting or anything like that. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

My mom's been dealing with high blood pressure, and I just got a reading of 15088 from a digital device today. Our family doctor recommended ATEN 25 for her and suggested she takes 2 tablets daily. I'm worried and wondering if that's the best medication for her situation. Could you share any advice or thoughts on this?

I'm a bit concerned about my recent full body check-up results. My hs-CRP level came back as 16.35, and I'm not sure what that means. Is this something I should be worried about? What could this high reading indicate in terms of my health? Would really appreciate some guidance.

Hs CRP reading of 16.35 indicates a high sensitivity C-reactive protein level in your blood. This marker is often used to assess inflammation in the body. A level above 10 mgL is considered high and may indicate inflammation due to various reasons such as infection, autoimmune disorders, or chronic diseases. It is important to further evaluate the underlying cause of this elevated level.
