I trust the colonoscopy was clear and no further treatment is needed.

Whilst the QRS is on the low side how was it measured? I recall you have some of your own kit but from my and others experiences Dr Amazon kit can be as poor as Dr Google diagnosis!

Nothing like a 12 lead ECG carried out by a competent healthcare professional and interpreted by an experienced and knowledgeable Cardiac nurse or doctor.

Hi Michaeljh wish was clear am just waiting on if they had spread BUT the did not like being excised.

According to PIT type criteria was Grade 3s

So think it’s that and stress caused my arrhythmia to play up.

I don’t really google amazon stuff anymore BUT my arrhythmia issues originated from IVCD
