[rebeccad]

Ok so I went to the docs and he's pretty sure it's muscular but wants me to have an ECG at 6 this evening , has anybody had this and what does it entail ? Does it hurt and what will it show ? I was to nervous to ask but he did say heart problems is extremely rare in my age group I'm 34
Thanks for reading , once I get something into my head I can't let it lie x

I had one done about 2 years ago, its painless they just put Stickers to your ankles and around your chest they are attached to wires and it does a simple check of your heart rate and things,

Takes about 5 mins xx

That's ok thanks didn't see this forum , had it done machine wouldn't print so doctor read it off screen , that's ok right ? X

So I has it done due to some
Chest discomfort , the machine wouldn't print so the doc had to read off the screen , I'm worrying that because it wouldn't print the machine was faulty and I do have a heart complaint , how accurate are they and are gps qualified to read them , he said it was normal but I'm doubting it and worrying over the not printing, I went out last night with my girl friends and we had a
Blast never stopped laughing and dancing , surely I wouldn't have been able to so that , why do I always doubt the tests :(

They don't need to print them to read it

You are fine
