The only thing to be afraid on this test is the bill. My doctor wanted me to get this test but when they told me it will cost $6,000+ I ran for the hills. This is insane.
Very good video ,easy to understand
Very helpful
I had my 3rd Echo last month and the Technician that did the Echo kept asking me when I had a "heart attack" I said "Never" then he asked "Why did you have "Your Bypass?" He made me very nervous!!!
Also taking brilinta can bring on arrhythmias and diagnosis of AFib...
Thank you all kindly for sharing your experiences...have an echo this morning. Not too nervous about the procedure...hoping all goes well
JUST SUBSCRIBED, AMAZING VIDEO, THANK YOU SO MUCH. MUCH
have had paroxysmal afib for some years, that I know. Only a few small episodes a year which only lasted maybe a minute or two. I have had a breathing issue during this time where I occasionally felt as if I needed to take a deep breath to catch up. One time I was dizzy for longer than I thought I should be and had shortness of breath and I felt the need to have a urgent care visit. 6 hours of looking and testing and they finally said I must have a PE. That was the first of many misdiagnosis and these came from ER Doctors and a cardiologist. I have had 3 echos within a year and so far the heart is good, no thickening, bad valves, calcium or other blockage. Good heart, for now H'ray!. I am 81 and before a month ago very active beyond what people would expect. I am only 140 lbs and still toss around 90lb bags of concrete working on my house. Then came a surprise, something happened weeks ago and I was in ER, BP 55/50 rate 150. Everything stabilized with IV meds and after a few hours sent home with the diagnosis paroxysmal afib. I have not had but one eposode where my normal BP of 128/80 rate 77 dropped to 108/70 but the rate rose to a little over 80. This lasted about 10 minutes then went away. I do deep breathing excerize and a hot shower and everything stabilizes. I have been on eliquis for 4 years because then I was told I had a PE and had to take it, maybe that misdiagnosis was a savior if I do in fact have afib. I do have some palpitations but not always, no pains, stabbing pressure etc. I think at this time I need to see a Electrophysiologist for a diffenitive diagnosis. My current cardiologist told me to take Metoprolol 25 a day and come back in 4 months. Don't like this med as it puts me in Bradycardia and that is as dreadful as the afib except it is all day where the afib can be minutes every once in a while. Still trying to figure that out. Well that is my current story on this chapter of my life. Comment if you'd like, appreciated. Tell me of your stories of meds especially metoprolol. Best to all.
K people if your gonna say your having one done ...update afterwards ! If your here your prob scared af i am got mine tommorow at noon i will update .

Really
We should not drink alcohol only water no alcohol

I had a chemical stress test a couple of years ago, and I was not as informed at the time. Thankfully, the dobutamine worked to get me to the desired heart rate. They mentioned something to me about maybe using adenosine if it hadn’t reached the target level. Now that I have been researching that drug, if they had given me that without explaining to me how I would feel, that would be some Jerry Springerlike interactions going on in that lab.
Is it painful?
No
Dont believe these sellouts devils.
Is the American way of saying the word Angina different, because as an English person we don’t say it like that.
Well, I wanna give mouth to mouth resuscitation.
During this test, does the doctor's finger touch the female boobs?
Very helpful information. Thank you.
I just had one today and I literally had to stop it after 30 mins and I’m a grown man. It felt like I was suffocating are something I kept thinking about what it something goes wrong
Thank you. I wouldn't be surprised if my ticker is fine. The range of possible causes is annoying. I am sure the cardiologist will find the answer.
I had this test done. While the test is slightly uncomfortable it is not painful. They did an EKG on the same day. The results were good.
Untreated afib will get worse. It leads to HF. Do what you need to do to stop the Afib. Do not think to just “live with it”

This is the opposite of the truth
My stepfather talked me in to occasionally having a alcholic beverage when i was 16, so now find out that even any bit is horrible, holly jeez is every thing that man has done to me either abusive or horrible.
Good god, is the heart noise in the background really necessary? Makes it really difficult to listen to the video.
Thanks
Im only 23 and I’m getting one tomorrow and I’m nervous for the results
You don´t have to live with it. I can fix it,energetically, very quickly by finding and eliminating the cause. I have done this dozens of times.
How
What are the options if doctor tells you to sit sideways so that one is not able to see the tv screen. And refuses to give report.... and tells report only after 7 days as printer is faulty, after the test is done....
Mi LDL a 71 está bien?
When are doctors going to realize that a low fat diet is part of the problem? That's when I turned off. The 1950's Ansel Keys garbage has now been thoroughly debunked by the majority of progressive scientists. Dietary fat intake has NO relationship to serum cholesterol. Check the latest research by INDEPENDENT sources, not beholden to drug companies or other vested interests selling statins. Normal cholesterol levels are what God gave us, for a good reason. Even people with FH are now being studied to examine mortality statistics, with and without statin treatment.

How can you say a modest amount of poison has health benefits. A poison is a poison whether consumed in modest amount or large. Really doubt you are even a doctor😳😳
Nothing to worry about I’ve had loads
