I don't smoke, I don't have high blood pressure, I don't have diabetes.

but my heart is blocked.

Why? because i like to eat nasi lemak, oily food, drink curry laksa addiction, eat salty ipoh chicken.

Have you considered changing your diet for better health?

Go on low carb diet
Restrict taking any drink and food that has added sugar.
Restrict all high carb foods like bread, rice, noodles, pizza, porridge, potatoes, etc.

Just see a specialist and see what his recommendations are
Since you got insurance, ask your insurance agent which doctors good

I had my stress test in 2022, failed that
get a specialist and get Coronary angioplasty done for 1 main arteries and 2 sub arteries
Was awake during operation when the doctor told me need to do 1 more sub arteries (was diagnosed 2 blockage beforehand)
Managed claim insurance or major part of it.

Affecting my lifestyle? No
Work performance? No(of cos don't push hard just after operation lar.. give rest 1 or 2 days and pick up the pace after that.. if u afraid lar)

Coming sept will do another stress test after 1 year operation.
btw me failed the test when i was 48 years (damn those chinese prediction come true...  doh.gif )

What made you do the stress test?

Did you do EGC before that?

Anything detected in your ECG?

Got do echocardiogram?

Before anything, go do a calcium score test first.

The dr will let you know if you need to do angiogram.

Don't scare yourself la.

Do it double quick. As in NOW

Sharing my diet plan here if it helps!

Breakfast: Metamucil (this helps with cholesterol, not meal replacement), milo with oat and raisin
Lunch: Simple toast, fruits, avocado, etc.
Dinner: White meat (chicken, seafood), no red meat (pork, beef, lamb)

Avoid dairy products, milk, cheese, condensed milk, ice cream. Occassionally is fine.

Admit the fact we are no longer in our 20s! biggrin.gif

Avoid Milo and Raisins.

Both are very high in sugar.

It'll be better if you can cut down on anything that is high in carbohydrates
