[|AI|]  Hello Mr Chandra, Firstly I am sorry for your dads' loss. However, that put a positive family history of coronary disease. Other risk factor is hypertension.  All the other reports which you have mentioned are perfectly within normal limits and you shouldn't worry about the same, even uric acid at 7, no treatment is indicated at present. Now about TMT, the symptoms you describe are not characteristic for angina, however because of the risk factors which I have mentioned and if you are obese, smoke or have angina stressful life you fall into intermediate risk for coronary event in the future, so for you TMT is a good test to rule out underlying cardiac issues.  In TMT they make you run on a treadmill and monitor your blood pressure vitals and see ECG changes. Also, any symptoms during exercise is unmasked. So in short they make your heart exercise and check whether everything is ok than. Hence, if your TMT is fine you may rule out any critical blocks indirectly.  So yes TMT would be a good test to rule out heart as the cause of the chest discomfort you feel. Hoping I could help. Regards Chat Doctor.
