I had a holter monitor last week and they uploaded the results to my patient portal. I also had an ECHO but they refuse to upload until after my follow up appt which is next week, Wednesday. This puts me in fear as I don't understand why they can upload one but not the other? Anyway. I am a 31 y/o female. Overweight (but lost 20lbs in may!) and smoke a pack of cigs a day. I have had on and off (every day nearly) heart palpitations and high heart rate which is what lead me to see the cardiologist and have these tests done. Any help on the report reading would be appreciated:
