When should I consider getting a TMT test? Are there specific signs or symptoms that would mean I need one? I'm a 23-year-old guy and just want to understand when it might be necessary.

A TMT (Treadmill Test) is usually recommended for individuals who have symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, or dizziness during physical activity. It is also indicated for individuals with risk factors for heart disease such as a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, or smoking history. As a 23-year-old male without any symptoms or risk factors, a TMT may not be necessary at this time. It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, to reduce the risk of heart disease in the future.

So I got my ECO and TMT tests done on June 14th, and everything came back normal. My blood pressure kind of bounces between 120145 and 8092. Since the TMT was negative, does this mean I definitely don't have any blockages? Should I be redoing these tests given my blood pressure numbers? I'm just trying to figure out if there's anything else I should be doing or checking on.

Hi, based on your normal Eco and TMT results from June 14th and considering your blood pressure readings between 120-145 and 80-92, as well as the negative TMT result indicating no blockage, there may not be an immediate need to repeat the same tests. However, it is important to continue monitoring your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance on managing your blood pressure. If you have any concerning symptoms or if your blood pressure readings significantly change, it would be advisable to consult with your doctor for a personalized assessment and recommendations.
