Need not worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Dehydration can sometimes present with the symptoms you faced. This could not be a impending heart attack.

I would like to have a look at the report of the test you underwent just to ascertain the same.

I have not heard about the cartography test you mentioned above. Please share the report and some info on the same.

Waiting for your response,
