My mom, who's 50, has been taking Thyronorm 50 for her thyroid. Her doctor mentioned noticing some changes in her ECG twice during her follow-ups and suggested she should get a TMT and an Echo done. Her 2D Echo looks normal with an LVEF of 65%, but her TMT came back positive for inducible ischemia at a moderate workload level. She's mentioned having shortness of breath sometimes when she's climbing stairs, but other than that, she's fine and doesn't have any chest pain or a history of high blood pressure or diabetes. What would you suggest as the next steps for her?

View allI've been dealing with high blood pressure for the last month, consistently around 170110, even after taking my medication. I'm really concerned about why it's not coming down and what I should do next. Could there be something else going on that I need to check?
It seems like your current medication may not be effectively controlling your blood pressure. I recommend discussing with your doctor about adjusting your medication. In addition to your current treatment, adding a medication like Amlodipine (5mg) or Lisinopril (10mg) can help lower your blood pressure. Remember to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your blood pressure levels.

I've been having motion problems for about 4 years now, and it's really tiring me out. Sometimes my heart starts beating really fast, and I get a fever a few times a week. What could be causing this, and what should I do?
These can be symptoms of anxiety, fatigue, and intermittent fever. To address your motion problem and fast heart rate, you can try using propranolol. It is important to monitor your symptoms and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

Chest pain on the left side has been bothering me on and off for the past week. I'm dealing with a lot of work stress and only getting around 6 hours of sleep a night. My evening meal times are all over the place too. I'm not having any issues with breathing or moving around, but I can't help but wonder what's causing this discomfort. Could you tell me what might be going on and if I need to get any tests or X-rays done?
once get your ECG done as a screening for cardiac issues,if it turns out to be normal, General physician consultation would help you.
