Medical Forum / General / Cardiology / January 2006ST Segments
Just called my cardiologist (he was on call), not because of chest pain, but because of palpations after eating. He told me to take more Atenolol, and did agree that calling 911 during chest pain attacks was ok (he always changes his mind). However, he did say that he would only be worried if I had ST segment elevation in more than two leads and over 2mm. Is he correct? At any rate, with hope and pleading, my local doctor will call Dr. Chung tomorrow. Has anyone else had problems with healthcare in Oklahoma? I'm getting sick of these HCM games.

It can also worsen metabolic syndrome (MetS). > However, he did say that he would only be worried if I > had ST segment elevation in more than two leads and over 2mm. > > Is he correct? ST elevation has not been your EKG abnormality. > At any rate, with hope and pleading, my local doctor will call Dr. Chung > tomorrow. Has anyone else had problems with healthcare in Oklahoma? There are people have problems with healthcare in all 50 states and other countries. > I'm > getting sick of these HCM games. That is understandable. It is my hope that you are weighing your meals and eating less. This will help to lower your fasting glucose which should improve your endothelial function. Would be more than happy to "glow" and chat about this and other things like cardiology, diabetes and nutrition that interest those following this thread here during the next on-line chat (01/12/06) from 6 to 7 pm EST: http://tinyurl.com/cpayh For those who are put off by the signature, my advance apologies for how the LORD has reshaped me: http://tinyurl.com/bgfqt Prayerfully in Christ's love, Andrew http://tinyurl.com/b6xwk > ST elevation has not been your EKG abnormality. Is ST depression the problem? Or the T waves alone? Per are phone call, I understand the Q waves do not look normal, so I understand that very clearly. >> At any rate, with hope and pleading, my local doctor will call Dr. Chung >> tomorrow. Has anyone else had problems with healthcare in Oklahoma? Thank you once again Dr. Chung. I can't sleep, thus that's why I'm posting so late at night. Chest pain comes and goes, but I'm waiting for a longer attack. Not to mention, I am seeing my doctor tommorrow. Take Care, Nigel > > ST elevation has not been your EKG abnormality. > > Is ST depression the problem? Yes. > Or the T waves alone? Both. > Per are phone call, I > understand the Q > waves do not look normal, so I understand that very clearly. Yes. The Q waves suggest you have had an inferior wall myocardial infarction as picked up by the analysis software. > >> At any rate, with hope and pleading, my local doctor will call Dr. Chung > >> tomorrow.
