My ECG scan I had a couple weeks ago came back slightly abnormal but doc wasn't concerned When I wash my hair or do anything like that with my arms up or am doing something that physical I become very short of breath to point I have to stop what I'm doing
Hi, From history it seems that you might be having coronary insufficiency. Physical strain can cause more coronary insufficiency leading to angina pain. Consult cardiologist and get examined and undergo test like stress test etc. Ok and take care.
An abnormal ECG is an indication for further evaluation. HOLTER (24 to 48 hour ambulatory monitoring) / ECHOcardiogram / TMT (Treadmill exercise ECG) / LABORATORY work-up (electrolytes) – may all be necessary for further assessment and assistance. It could very well be a normal variation... Your symptoms do not favour heart disease.../ or lung problem! Breathing difficulty could be from pain or anxiety / it is better to be seen by a Pulmonologist; have an X-ray and spirometry – to exclude any issue Discuss with your GP
Take care Wishing all well God bless Good luck
