Pace and Ablate
I am going for an
echocardiogram
tomorrow as evidently I need to be in heart failure with an ejection fraction of less than 30% to qualify for bi-ventricular. I somehow don’t think I am there yet! EP is going above and beyond to fight my corner but things have ground to a stalemate.

TGIF Peeps_IMPORTANT
They ordered a Cardiac Stress test and a
Echocardiogram
, they want to make sure that the smoking has not caused any heart damage. They also told me that I can not resume the gym until I am done with the Prednisone and I have to go slow they don't want me to bring on a potential heart attack .

Don't know what to do!
My ankles are hideously swollen and am due to have
echocardiogram
to rule out heart trouble. I do not tolerate any medication well and am terrified of more side effects, but I have had four spinal fractures over the last 2 years and they say I will only get more.

Atrial Flutter and Shingles
Three weeks ago my tachycardia didn't settle down so I ended up in hospital for a chemical cardioversion (unsuccessful) and a successful electric cardioversion following a trans-oesophageal
echocardiogram
. I was then diagnosed with Atrial Flutter which the doctors said is in addition to my MAT.

Doubting my diagnosis of COPD.
I did have an
echocardiogram
that shows a moderately enlarged right ventricle but with normal ejection fraction and only borderline pulmonary hypertension with a PAP of 21.

Been a while! Now Pericarditis?
I had a stress
echocardiogram
last week which I'm waiting on the results for. However I am wondering now if what I'm feeling is indeed something else. I'm now wondering if this pain is actually pericarditis. Having just reviewed the symptoms it seems a close match.

Feel like I’m passing out
Going back to Doc next week, recent
echocardiogram
was fine. Has anyone else had this? It’s very scary.

Pericardial effusion
During investigation a chest x-ray showed an enlarged heart so an
echocardiogram
was arranged that showed a large amount of fluid around my heart. A drain was arranged which I had 3 weeks ago and I had approx 2 litres of fluid drained.

Myopericarditis - rest time/recovery
Hi all, I was diagnosed two weeks ago with myopericarditis - went to A&E with (very mild) chest pains and had an abnormal ECG (T wave inversion), high troponins and neutropenia so was admitted, given an angiogram/
echocardiogram
but both were clear so discharged after a few days with antibiotics, NSAIDs

My thoracic back MRI recently showed my heart to be enlarged.
I had a pre-surgical
echocardiogram
and stress test done prior to my cervical Fusion and Total Knee Replacement and everything looked fine. I'll see my rheumy and my cardiologist in the next two weeks. Has anyone else here experienced rapid heart changes shortly after your diagnosis?

Severe chest pain almost daily
My
echocardiogram
and EKGs all came back good too. This isn't anxiety or panic chest pain. I have had that before this is different.

Possible Pulmonary hypertension
I am very concerned as the condition showed on a routine
Echocardiogram
. I called for previous one after elbow surgery taken last year at hospital in my former residence and they said it was "normal" but I saw the reading and it appeared to be mild, but no one told me.

Dobutamine stress echocardiogram
Hi friends, i have an appointment for one of these tests soon, and i am worried. Is it straight forward, and how do you feel? I had a cardio stress test on the treadmill recently which was awful, i couldnt breathe and felt dreadful. Heart was pounding. Any reassurance would be appreciated, thank you

Update to cardiologist visit.
Had an earlier appointment with my cardiologist yesterday,
echocardiogram
. Another ECG . Upshot of it is, he wants to do more investigations. Was given the option of invasive test or another
echocardiogram
and a nuclear scan. Being the hero I am, I opted for the latter.
