I'm 41 years old male, recently diagnosed with hypertension (150/100). Doc put me on Hypertension medicines for a week and after a few tests (ECG, TMT, abdomen USG etc.) noted that" test ve for exercise induced myocardial ischemia" and prescribed blood thinners and cholesterol medicines along with Hypertension medicines. I have my doubts about the TMT, as I have neither run out of breath not experienced any pain in chest, I stopped only due to sweating at third stage of TMT difficulty setting and after a 6 minutes. Kindly advice me if I can go for another TMT test and should I start taking Blood Thinners (heard a lot about the side effects and life long dependency) or is there a way my case can be re-examined.
