My husband has be in and out of the hospital since July after he started getting massive headaches with dizziness, tingling in his hands/feet, off balance, and more. He had brain surgery 8/1/2012 so when this all started in July again, we naturally went to neuro, but they can't figure it out. This week, he was in the hospital after some "seizure like" spells and passing out in the last 3 months. He had one "event" of losing consciousness, but the EEGs were all ok and no signs of epilepsy which is good. They don't really know what is causing these spells.
His EKG upon admission was abnormal - indicates left axis deviation, incomplete right branch bundle block, abnormal t waves, and low voltage qrs. The neuro team feels it's not related, but I work in healthcare and know that those things are all electrical and could possibly be the culprit of all that's been going on, and it's not the brain at all. He had a stress test done about 6 weeks ago that was fairly normal stating only grade 1/4 left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, consistent with low to normal left ventricular filling pressure and Left ventricular end systolic volume decreased with stress.
We asked for a cardiology consult (he came home yesterday) and I'm hoping to get that setup this week.
Just wondered what your thoughts were on it all or if we're wasting our time with cardiology?
