EKG abnormal

[sandy1 1]

I just went for my first visit and found out I have an abnormal EKG. Now I have to go to my DR and hopefully get a normal test. If not I have to go to a cardioligist. I am just trying to get this done and now this-more delays. Anyone else have this trouble? I am using True Results in Housto, TX.

Sandy, stay positive. Hopefully this is just a speed bump in your path and not a road block. For the doctor's protection, and your safety, it's best to make sure that you are ok.

Now, I have my initial consultation at True Results here in Houston tomorrow. So, if I'm on here complaining about something tomorrow, remind me of what I just told you!

i had an abnormal EKG last wednesday and my surgery is scheduled for next wednesday (3/9). so this week, i was referred to the cardiologist. on tuesday, they did another EKG (fine) and ultrasound (fine), but scheduled me for a stress test so that they could grant me cardiac clearance for surgery. did my stress test today and will hopefully have the results back by monday at the latest. hopefully everything will be a go and there will be no delay.

i understand how frustrating it is (TRUST ME: I'M FRUSTRATED ). it's especially upsetting when you think you're past your final hurdle - six months of dieting, doctor's appointments, psychiatric evaluations, sleep studies, blood work, blah blah blah. can't really recommend anything other than to remain calm and keep a positive outlook.

good luck, sandy! hope all goes well!

p.s. i told my cardiologist that i had already been on liquids for a week, and there wasn't any coming back from that

Hopefully this is just a minor speed bump and everything will turn out fine. I hurdled many of them on my journey and it was frustrating but I got over them, as will you! Good luck.

I went to my primary care doctor and had another EKG. The very same result. So now I have to go to a cardiologist. Trouble is the first available appointment is march 25th!!! WTH.... this is my heart health.

Soooo I am going to have to reschedule my surgery for a later date!
