Quick update ... met another cardiologist unintentionally when my wife had a TakoTsubo Syndrome (TTS) episode (doing well and expected full recovery).

While chatting at her follow-up, I briefly outlined my scenario to him (he is fellowship trained, young, aggressive and strongly supportive of technology). He said he agreed with my cardiologist, and given my great blood numbers, good stress test, and complete lack of symptoms he would not even recommend another stress test. His opinion on CTA was the same as the other fellow. He did note he thought a Boston Heart Panel would potentially be useful; however, this blood work looks a bit like the CardioIQ panel.

What was his opinion on CTA?
