Hi MTBer

 

Yup, you should get this checked out. Come and see me or Jon at the Morningside Sports Med Centre. We can do a stress ECG and a proper history and exam for you.

Just out of interest, my test went fine and the doc let me push to 184 BBM and said all ok.

If it happens again I will need to go for a heart scan to see if any problems but otherwise he said I need't worry.

Good news just beore my 55 on Saturday

Hi All

My doc called me back after double checking my results with his colleague and advised me to go for a CT scan of my heart just to be sure of something he thought he saw.

 

Just came back from it now - filled my veins with dye and took a couple snaps of my ticker.

 

Waiting with baited breath for the all clear.Saturdays race brought a few chest pains again but one is never sure if it’s muscle or …..

Well done for checking things out. I had an aortic dissection 3 years ago, and know how scary it is to go for my six-monthly checkups.
