I am 33 years old, 6 foot and 175 lbs and athletic. I went to the ER for chest discomforst for the third time in a year yesterday (4/10) was admitted and released today (4/11). I have had a CAT Scan, numerouse chest x-rays, ekg's and blood cardiac enzym tests all of which were normal. I have also had a abdominal ultrasound, echo and CT Angoigram which were also normal. Of course anxiety plays a role in this but I don't think it causes everything I am struggling with (Sinus Tach, Elevated BP, Lightheadedness) I am on Toprol which has helped with the BP and high Heart rate. I just need answers.
I saw my second Cardiologist yesterday and he suggested having a Heart Cath just to completely rule out it being a cardiac issue. I am a little nervous about this because it is invasive and there are some risks involved. I went ahead and made an appointment for the end of April. I trust my Cardiologist and definitrly want to put an end to this roller coaster.
Any advice would be a welcome comfort. thank you.
