My EKG was abnormal



Recommended Posts

Which is totally what you want to hear.

So I go to my primary care provider Thursday to get a medical clearance.

Stupid heart.

Did they say in what way? I used to be a cardiac nurse and the way some EKG's are abnormal wouldn't keep you from having surgery and others would. Hopefully it's something minor, good luck!

I had the stress test and found a few things wrong with my heart and lungs... It took a few months to get things under control with a few test and the dye in the heart a lungs but I was cleared and had my surgery on the 10th of December and doing ok in the health side. Do panic it will be ok.

They didn't say, but i have a really high resting heart rate, so I'm hoping that's what they're bugging out over.

Thank you. :)

Before Mom had her surgery, they found a mass on her lungs. Turned out to be a Calcium deposit folks born in the midwest get, but it was better safe than sorry.

I had an abnormal EKG. Wasn't a big deal. I was cleared immediately after my primary read the results.

Thanks, y'all. :)

I'm hopeful it's nothing major since they didn't immediately set me up for more tests.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
