Exercise Stress Test, 24 hour holter monitor, 2-D Doppler test?!


Question: Exercise Stress Test, 24 hour holter monitor, 2-D Doppler test!?
I'm male age 22 - non-smoker

I had all three tests 1 week ago because I went to E!.R last month I thought I was dying and it was just anxiety attack!.

Since then I am feeling weak and episodes of irregular/rapid heartbeat!.

Its been a week since I had the tests!.
My Stress Test result came back next day at my GP's office and it was normal!.

However My GP haven't received the results of other two tests yet!.
How long does it take !? I am getting worried :(Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
not to worry, had there been anything wrong, the cardiologist reading the tests would have called your doc!. It's likely that they were normal tests and are just sitting in some file waiting for someone to type up the report and send it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The Holter monitor if I recall correctly took three weeks when I had it!. It collects 24 hours of data, so the computer has to go through all that and count the heartbeats and find abnormal ones, and then the doctor has to check the results and make sure they are correct!.

Try not to be anxious, in someone your age it's probably a benign abnormal heartbeat!. I started having them about your age and was diagnosed with premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), which are annoying but in my case not dangerous!.

The Doppler will also take a while but with your stress test being normal and with no heart murmur that you've mentioned it's probably also normal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
