What Does My TMT Result Report Indicate?
I went through a Complete Medical checkup yesterday. I ve been diabetic for past 4 yrs and have been under medication since then. What i m concerned is that the TMT report says The Exercise Stress test is positive for provocable myocardial ischemia . Can you please explain if this is something to worry about and do i need to get someone tests done. I m 37 yrs hold and weigh 70 kgs. Please advice.

Hello dear
I understand your concern
TMT test positive for provocable ischemia suggests possibility of cardiovascular disease.
It suggests inadequate blood supply to the heart
I would suggest to undergo TMT with thallium isotope o CT angiography to investigate the cardiovascular disease by consulting the cardiologist.
If above tests will come normal then you should not concern about the problem.
In case of positive result coronary angioplasty will require.
Hope this may help you
