OK, yesterday i did my EKG and they found TachyCardia (fast heart rate) and then Premature Ventricular Contractions. What is pathetic is I am 24.

OK, so have any of your drs, seen this on you, and if so did they still go forward with surgery?? Im kinda scared to hear from my dr.

Anyone else get other issues in their EKG?

They may request you see a cardiologist for surgical clearance just to be on the safe side. You have to remember that you will be having a general anesthetic and there are reasons to make sure everything is ok. Even something as an undiagnosed thyroid problem can cause tachycardia.

Sometimes health things get picked up in unplanned ways... so be sure to follow it through, and it will work out :cool:

Take Care!

My mom came back with an abnormal EKG and they cancelled her surgery.

There are many different things an ecg can show with varying degrees of danger. Not all things will require an elective surgery to be cancelled. Just wait and see what your doc says.
