Request For Help With Severe Pain In the Chest, Ekg Enclosed Posted: 08-07-04 22:08pm
Request for help with severe pain in the
chest, ekg enclosed. Thank you.
Hi, my name is alex and for about two
years I have been suffering recurring
episodes of pressure, shortness of breath
and severe pains in the chest, going out
to the back shoulders and neck, lasting
for about a week. After which, I have
discomfort in the chest area until the
episode begins again. Recently, the
episodes are getting much worse.
If anyone who has any experience
interpreting ekgs could do me small favor
and take a look at my ekg which i've
scanned in and converted to a jpeg I would
be very grateful. This sickness is taking
over my life, and I would be ever so
grateful for any clue as to what is
happening to me.
Hi
what does the doctor say about this?
Could this be stress,if your ekg is
normal,and he has run all the tests? How
old are you? Most doctors run tests
according to age,family history,etc? They
usually like to do an ultrasound,and
holter monitor,and stress test,have you
had any of these? If the stress comes out
abnormal,then a heart catheter. You
haven't said where you had any of these or
not.
