I'm confused.. Do I have ARVD? abnormal ECG

Hi,

I am writing to this forum as I am currently worried sick, and just need another opinion. I am a 21 year old male. Last November I wen't to hospital with heart palpitations and was very overwhelmed with sweaty, clammy hands and chest pains.

I was left in hospital for 2 nights as the doctors took MRI, ECG and blood pressure. They finally told me the results and basically told me they were unsure to what my issue was. I had an abnormal ECG scan, so I did a CT scan, echo, blood test and MRI test which all came back normal and clear.

Today I had my cardiologist appointment and he was thinking i might have ARVD, but MRI came clear so he thinks a loop recorder over 3 years is required.

ps. I have undertaken 2 more ECG scans since the abnormal scan at the hospital and they have come back normal.

Can someone please help me with some advise or another opinion.

Thanks,

Ted.
