I have been suffering from I think anxiety and chest pains the doctor sent me for a 24 hour ambulatory this apparently did not work so I had another one done. I am a 36 year old male. The doctors have just rang me and the receptionist asked me to book a appointment. I asked if anything is wrong she said their are no notes from the doctor and if their was a issue the doctor themself would of called me. Why would I need a appointment then?? Any advise would be great
do you mean you wore a heart monitor for 24 hours and it didn't work? If that is the case they most likely just want to repeat it because maybe they did not get a good reading or it just wasn't recording your hearts activity. Your doctor would have called you if they found anything concerning.
Hi. I had 2 tests the first one didn't work the second one was 3 weeks ago. The receptionist rang she said their was no note off the doctor with any issues but I needed to book a appointment at the doctors. So now I am just worried. Perhaps it is routine?
Oh so maybe this is just a follow up appointment after you wore the monitor. Doctors always like to go over results with the patient even if everything is perfectly normal. They like to reassure you.
so it sounds like it's a follow up appointment. Don't be too concerned about it because doctors are supposed to have a patient come back in to discuss any Tests, procedures or monitoring that was done even with good results.
The doctor may tell you that your heart rate was a little fast but that is very common with anxiety and it's not harmful. You'll be fine. 😁
Hey colin calm down there is nothing serious i think but its strange how the monitor disnot work for ist time any ways for the result you will have to go like when i have mine 24 hours heart monitor ecg for the ist time i go and they place for me the device and monitor my heart for 24 hours after that i go to hospital and give it to then and on the same day they tood me that come here after one week after one week i will go to hospital and cardiologist discuss with me about my test result in detail and show me where my heart beats become slow and he talk to me in detail that your result is fine almost 99% ....before test my cardiologist told me after this tests we will followup further that u may need more tests or not on the day of resukt he say u r completely fine and no need for more tests but i request for wcho and done it result was clear... you need to go to the doc for the result where he will discuss with u about the result dont b panic you are doing that for clarifcatiin that there is problem or not? A week ago i go again to my cardiologsit for more tests like scans etc he reffer me to big hospital bcoz there is no ct scan there i am not panic though i have anxiety i wanna make it sure if there is a heart problem or not so calm down there will b nothing and result will b clear now cheer up
