Tests
Posted: 10-31-05 19:15pm

So far i've had several ecg's, blood tests, a chest x-ray,
but i'm convinced I need more tests like an echocardiogram,
the doctor insists I don't need any more as it's all caused by anxiety
but I still can't really belive this...I'm 15 would you reccomend I get
an echo test done since I get palpitations and discomfort in my left
arm sometimes along with lightheadedness so i'm sure I have some
kind of heart valve disease...Would I need a scan to be sure or is
a physical examination and ecg's etc enough to detect anything?
