Hi guys,
Before xmas we found out that I'd lost the baby i was carrying and needed and erpc, so I'm lay on the theatre bed and the anaesthetist takes a 3 lead ecg, scratches his head and asks if I've got any cardiac prolems or chest pain!! I say no why and he says 'cause your ecg's showing st depression? but he then goes on to say that the machine often gives wierd results that are wrong so after the op he did a twelve lead ecg which he said was normal.
Anyway xmas went by fine no problems but about two weeks ago we all had a chest infection and I can't seem to shake it, anyway for the past three or four days i've been feeling like there is a pressure on my chest, i can't take a full breath in and i'm not sleeping, oh and i've got fluid retention!!
So this morning i decided it would be a good idea to go to the doctor just to get checked out, well she got the nurse to do a blood test and an ecg, at the top of the ecg it read st wave abnormality!!! but the nurse said not to worry 'cause these machines are often wrong, she says the doctor will be able to read it more accurately.
So anyway now i'm sat at home waiting for the doctor to ring me, panicking expecting to have a heart attack at anytime.
what do you guys think???
Love birdi
ps i'm only 33
