Both Glasgow Royal Infirmary and the Queen Elizabeth could undertake this but you would need a GP referral. If you ended up in A&E they would decide what tests were appropriate.

Yeah, I got a referral but it will take 6 weeks and my condition is worsening especially if I don't exercise, wondering if it's possible to exercise/run with conditions like palpitations/possible arrythmia? Thanks so much

You could also ring the BHF nurses to discuss.

Hi I live near Glasgow and attend the golden jubilee, mabe it's worth a call or a check their Web sites, for Ross Hall or the Nuffield clinic in great Western Road, I know they are private hospitals but not entirely sure what exactly they do,if they don't do ecg's they might be able to advise you where to go, I hope you get something sorted, take care char

Hi there, I've got into contact with them and they don't do ECG unless you are referred by a GP, which I have already but is taking some time. I've read other threads where most people seem to have got an ECG test done by a GP on the same day. Thanks a lot for your help
