During a checkup, my physician ordered blood work done and was very
concerned about the level of one of my cardiac enzymes. Sorry, I don't
remember which one it was. She thought that this high level was an
indicator of possible heart damage from a heart attack. She conferred
with another physician who said that the level was high but was still
within the acceptable high/low range. Is this anything that I should
be concerned about? Should I have the blood test repeated at a later
date? Thanks very much.
