Hi all,

Ive been suffering woth a fast pulse (fatest is 120BPM ive recorded) and long pauses inbetween beats, and flutters.

ive had many ECG's all come back ok, my chest xray was ok and ive had my results of the monitor and apparenly thats also ok.

"just to let you know that the 7 day (it ewas actually 6) even recorder was entirely normal showing sinus rhythm"

thats all the letter said, no mention of my ectopics or what they would be?

 

what do i do now?

      I would go and see my doctor and tell him that I do not understand why their report did not pick up your ectopics and flutters.

    Hi, keep calm firstly, I only say that, as I get really stressed when my heart does that, really beat fast and i get so scared.  Are you anxious?  If everything comes back ok from the ECG well there is nothing, my cardiologist says is wrong.  BUT, i think they don't know EVERTHING, so if you are unsure, go and get more tests, its easy for everyone to say, oh you look fine etc, but you know deep down how you feel, do you feel unwell? Ectopics are fairly common and light flutters.
