i had been getting pretty severe eptopic beats, which began when i received some bad news( no joke here )...
1st ECG the doc did a couple of blood tests to make sure on something and gave me the all clear and said it was "probably stress related"
the problem still remained but not as alarming and i had another ECG with a different clinic a couple of years later..."minor abnormalities"...blood tests showed high cholestrol, triglycerides etc etc...was put on statins and plavix which scared the #### out of me...
i felt fine, had no probs at all, exercising...the pills of course ran out...and i carried on as normal...
had another ECG last year which was normal and the doc said there were "no alarm bells ringing"...i explained one sudden jolt of pain in my chest one day when walking, but also told him i played tennis later that evening...the odd ache appears now and again, but again he said it was nothing to worry about! he mentioned thati may have ventricular irregularities which a lot of people have and that i just have to get on with life and try to ignore it!
slightly digressing here i know but in the same category i guess!
any comments!
