Question : I am a 32 year old female. I had an ekg done today at primary physician and the results said possible left and right enlargement. I am going back Friday for an echocardiogram. I ama mother of six boys and I never had high blood pressure or any health conditions. I am really scared. I am also currently breastfeeding. Will that affect the ekg results?

Brief Answer:
No need to worry

Detailed Answer:
hi
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I think it is safe to say that you need not worry.
Sometimes, in pregnancy, these changes happen cause mothers blood supplies to the baby as well.
So I would suggest that you relax.
No need to worry about it. Let us know the echocardiography report. We may help further thereafter.
Best of luck. Dr Mittal.
