I'm scheduled to have an angiogram next week and I'm feeling a bit anxious about it. How long does it usually take to recover fully from this procedure? I'm also worried about any possible side effects or serious risks that might come with it. And after the angiogram, will I need to stay in the hospital for a long time?

1-3 days is the hospital stay, post angioplasty sideeffects include paininfection, itching, bleeding and swelling.. They resolve after 3 days..

I'm feeling alright, haven't noticed any issues but just out of curiosity, I wanted to check my heart rate with an oximeter. It's consistently showing between 110 and 115. Is this something to be concerned about? What's causing my heart rate to be like this?

Regarding your heart rate, a resting heart rate of 110-115 beats per minute is considered higher than normal, as typical resting heart rates usually fall between 60-100 beats per minute. There are many non-serious reasons for an elevated heart rate, including recent physical activity, stress, anxiety, caffeine consumption, dehydration, or certain medications. However, since this seems to be a persistent reading and you're concerned enough to ask about it, I recommend scheduling an appointment with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation. They can perform a physical examination, review your medical history, and determine if any underlying conditions need to be addressed. While using an oximeter at home can be helpful, it's best to have a medical professional interpret these readings in the context of your overall health.

I recently had a TMT and an ECG done, and the ECG is attached for reference. The TMT report mentioned no ischemia, but I'm still getting some random chest pains, especially when I'm lost in thought. I've been given an antacid for it. How long is the TMT result considered valid?

The validity of a TMT (Treadmill Test) can vary depending on individual circumstances, but generally, it is valid for 1-2 years for individuals with a low risk of heart disease. Since your TMT report shows "No Ischemia" and you are experiencing random chest pain, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can continue taking the antacid as prescribed. If the chest pain persists or worsens, please consult your doctor for further assessment and management.
