Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
At this age, with alcohol and obesity, you need to be investigated for Coronary Artery Disease.
The next step is TMT with thallium isotope. It is the ideal non-invasive way to evaluate ischemia / to assess the PHYSIOLOGY (function) – to see whether the blood arriving at the heart muscle.
See an Internist / Cardiologist
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
