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'm feeling this strange pulsating sensation in my left ribs that goes down my armpit, and I'm having some chest pain as well. It's pretty unsettling, and on top of that, my left hand and leg keep sweating. This mostly happens at night, and I notice my heart is beating faster during these episodes. Any ideas on what might be causing this?

I'm experiencing some mild chest pain, back pain, and lightheadedness occasionally. Ive done an ECG, 2D Echo, and TMT. The cardiologist said my heart is fine and prescribed me T. Gemcal for 30 days, T. Etoshine MR for 5 days, and T. Pan D for 5 days. The ECG results show NRM and WNL, and the 2D Echo is normal. Ive attached the TMT report here. Could you take a look and let me know what you think?

What are the heart disease causes & risk factors?
With time, raised blood sugar levels can damage the blood vessels and nerves that control the heart. Additionally, people with diabetes are also more likely to have other conditions that raise the risk for heart disease such as high blood pressure and deranged cholesterol or triglyceride levels.
