ECG fail....
Hi, last Thursday I had my class 1 medical at Gatwick. All was going well till the ECG scan showed an "irregular beat" and there was no cardio specialist in that day so I would have to wait until Monday (yesterday) for the specialist to make sense of the results. No problem, I started making my way home, obviously slightly concerned and upset....
As I get home and turn my mobile back on I get a voicemail saying:
" ohh mr ?? It's stacy from the Caa medical centre if you're not too far away could you possibly come back and REDO the ECG, we may have wired you up incorrectly"
I call back and speak to numerous amount of people who all give a different story:
"noo this sort of scan results have been seen many times before you should be fine but we need to get dr ?? To sign it off as ok"
"the ECG may have been wired up incorrectly we would need to redo the ECG"
And plenty of other bull****.
Now I've had to wait until Monday (which was my birthday) to get told I need to fork out another £450 for an exercise ECG and EKG scan. I repeated the whole story of "maybe the wires were incorrectly placed" they denied the possibility and said thata not the case. I've paid the money and have an appointment tomorrow for the running ECG & EKG. But DAMN I know it's psychological but I've started getting sharp chest pains. It usually happens when I'm thinking about it (stupid I know"
>>>><<<<
I had an ECG scan in hospital in January which showed no sign of irregular/abnormal activity. It was because I was having chest pains after too much heavy lifting at the gym.
So is it possible I fail? Is my paranoia getting the best of me?
