In desperate need of advise
In my 24 hour holter report My rr interval was nearly 4 seconds at 1 am in night.. I also had one pause.. I was fully awake n didnt feel anything that time
But in final report no mention of anything.. Doctor didnt even give print outs of these events! I consulted many docs wid the report and most are okay wid report but one said its serious and can cause ur heart to go into arrest!!
What shud I do? Day n night I am obsessed wid thinking about that report.. I repeated another 24 hour holter.. That was completely normal.. RR interval okay., no pauses
I got ecgs done in daytime but there no pause coz in day my rate is
90's
I read on net that RR interval prolonged is serious!!! Why wud the doctor end up missing such serious thing?? I want to sue him for all the mental agony I am facing
Hello,
Getting pauses intermittently is a normal phenomenon. You need not worry . Its normal to get sinus pauses, heart rhythm blocks and low heart rates at night. If you do not have any symptoms do not worry. If you need to assess the risk of cardiac arrest then I need your ECG Echo and more details for that. But, the holter report that you have sent is normal. And even if the previous reports show a long pause once in a while that is ok. Send me complete holter reports and ECGs for further advice
Take care
