hello,
In July I had some feelings in my heart like I was going over a hill also it my pulse seemed to skip a beat when this happened. I was under a lot of stress at the time.This started to get regular so I went to Drs. this has continued by only a few times.
Pulse and blood pressure were normal on examination but I was sent for ecg and chest scan. Heart size was normal on scan.
The nurse said when doing the ecg that all looked normal but when I returned to the Dr for follow up she said that my heart beat was fine but the electric signal was slightly off but it may have been due to one of the wires not being connected properly so I was sent for an echo. When receiving the echo I had an ectopic beat but I was quite nervous and the nurse said it wasn't anything to worry about. My Dr phoned me today with the test results from the echo and said that 1 of my 4 chambers in my heart was slightly bigger than it should be and although she is sure it won't be anything for major concern she is referring me to a cardiologist so he can give his opinion on the results.
This has got me a bit worried. Has anyone any advice who is knowledgable in heart matters.
Unfortunately the Dr didn't give me any further details.
I am 39yrs, non smoker, drink in moderation and go to gym 3 times a week without any problems.
Many thanks
Chris
