Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Since your stress test Echo is normal, there is no need to worry about worsening clots.

These are good antioxidants. You should continue taking them.

N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is a newer anti-oxidant available in the market. It is highly specific for lung, heart, and kidneys. This medicine is easily available in tablet form.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
