View allI'm really worried about my heart health. I've been told I have mild plaque in my LAD and right artery and was diagnosed with insignificant CAD. How much plaque build-up actually needs medication? I'm trying to understand when it becomes a serious issue. Can you help clarify this for me?
In cases of insignificant coronary artery disease (CAD) with mild plaque in the LAD and right artery, medication may still be recommended to manage risk factors and prevent progression of the disease. Common medications that may be prescribed include: 1. Statins (e.g. Atorvastatin) - to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of plaque buildup. Dosage: Typically starting dose of Atorvastatin is 10-20 mg once daily. 2. Antiplatelet agents (e.g. Aspirin) - to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke. Dosage: Aspirin is often prescribed at a low dose of 75-100 mg once daily. 3. Beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) - to lower blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart. Dosage: Metoprolol is commonly started at a dose of 25-50 mg once or twice daily. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations and attend regular follow-up appointments for monitoring and adjustment of medications as needed.

I've been diagnosed with coronary artery disease and have triple vessel disease, along with type 2 diabetes. I just got my reports back, and they mention something about "good LV systolic." Can you help me understand what that means? Should I be worried about these findings? I'm trying to wrap my head around all these terms and what they mean for my health.

I've been experiencing some really strange sensations around my heart. It feels heavy, like my heart is beating too hard or could stop at any moment. Sometimes I even feel like an electric shock goes through my body. I've had an echo and TMT test, and both came back normal. The doctors say my heart is perfect and healthy, but I can't shake the feeling that I might have a cardiac arrest or heart attack at any time. I'm 18 years old and honestly, it's kind of freaking me out. Can you give me some advice or insights on what might be going on?
