I am a 29 year old fitness instructor. I went to the ER last night with chest pains, severe chest pressure, shortness of breath, and nausea. I have been having the pressure in my chest for a few weeks but chalked it up to anxiety.
After all my tests including an EKG came out fine I was given a CT scan. The CT scan showed that the right atrium in my heart is "Prominent" the ER doc told me to go get an EC to get an indepth picture of my heart. (i think thats what it is called, they dont do them at my army base hospital). I have an app tommorrow with my regular doc to refer me to a place that can help me out.
I am now freaking out, could this be the cause of my symptoms. If so, what does it mean? Is this something that can be fixed? If I have to wait 2 weeks for that scan is that too long, am I in immediate danger? Please help me out.
