A member asked:

After recent chest pain had high sensitivity troponin test. result was 6. what does/can this tell me about the likelihood of a past cardiac event or my general heart health? have upcoming stress test but doctor didnt say much about troponin result?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, there is wide variation in the normal troponin levels among different laboratories and you did not provide the normal range for the lab that did your test. Wish you good health!
