Heart palpitations
I've been having palpitations and dizzy spells. The palpitations are happening at least once an hour, and at times they do make me short of breath and make me very dizzy. 3 years ago I had a stress test, ecg and an echo. The echo was normal. The ecg showed a t abnormality (anterior leads) They did an ecg a few days ago(results below) My blood pressure is normally 120-130/80 but the last two weeks it was 165/108, 154/98 and 150/90(laying down). My dr is waiting 6 weeks and we will recheck blood pressure and she may put me on meds if still high. My general practitioner says I dont need to see a cardiologist because my echo was clear 2 years ago so it’s unlikely something is wrong with my heart so soon after. Is that accurate? Should I be concerned or am I making too much of this.
