tilt table

I go back to the cardiologist tomorrow after not being there for 2 years.  He ordered a tilt table test back then but I never had it done.  My symptoms seem to be getting worse and now I have chest pain.  I expect he will want to do it now.  What do I expect?  Anyone else get chest pain with this.

Like Molly0, I've had some mild infrequent chest pain.  Is your chest pain quite severe?  I'm not certain if this is a typical Dysautonomia symptom, but perhaps someone else will have some insight to share.

It sounds as if you are having all of the appropriate testing, I hope your doctor is able to find an appropriate treatment for you.  Good luck!

Had an EKG this morning.  The cardiologist ordered the Tilt and Echo too.  He Called himself the fainting specialist.  Thinks it may e neurocardiogenic in nature.  That the chest pain in stimulating the response.  He does not think I have heart disease based on my stress test, but is concerned about my LDL being high.

My daughter and I both have mild chest pain occasionally, but not very often.  Good luck on the tilt table test, I think you should get it.  With the chest pain though, you should probably get an echo and ekg too.
