If you get the nurse I got for the ECG then your heart rate might be a little higher. This is normal- she was an absolute fox.
When i went my heart rate was a little higher but the person doing my ECG was male!!Should i question my sexuality? Lol

On a serious note. I went to my Class 1 initial thinking i would fail as my Class 2 ECG showed i had Left Brundle Branch Block. The ECG at my Class 1 was clear and the AME said it was most possibly a faulty sensor on my Class 2!!!

Shocked i passed the Class 1! Anyway staff are very informative and friendly. Certainly nothing to worry about. Take a good magazine as there is a lot of waiting around to do!!

I had to travel quite a way so as my medical was first thing in the morning i stayed at a local hotel the night before. This way i didn't have to worry about traffic to Gatwick. Worth thinking about especially if your going for something as important as a medical where you need to keep calm and keep the heart rate to a norm.

All the best Wing Man!!!
