I Took An Ekg Before Kidney Stone Removal Surgery That
I took an ekg before kidney stone removal surgery that I found out 4 months later had come out abnormal. I had asked the clinic that took all my tests for records to take to my doctor. I was told by the physician filling in for my family doctor the leads were reversed. I asked the urologist if he had seen it during my last appointment so I could get it corrected. I had a second one done and it also came back abnormal. The second one got misplaced by the doctor who said the leads were reversed, so they ran one in his office. It came back abnormal but he said it was ok. He wrote normal on the top. I have had high blood pressure for about 25 years and my diastolic # was usually in the mid 80's to 90's. I was put on Procardia by a doctor who thought I had angina years ago but my diastolic # continued to run high. I have changed doctors because of changes in staff and locations and am now taking 2 different blood pressure medications. Should I see a cariologist to go over the ekg's and ask if I might need additional tests?
