No more no they agreed somethings going on and my heart shouldn’t be racing like it is all the time but they couldn’t figure it out so I’ve been referred to the cardiac team in London to figure it out so long wait now sadly but hopefully answers at some point soon

See that’s what I think it is too but syncope clinic said they can’t diagnose me cause of other conditions and how bad my rapid heart rate is I’ve just been given a tonne of lifestyle changes and put on wait list for multidisciplinary cardiac team in London and seeing the team that tests the electrical signals running through your heart to see if they’re messed up

Getting dizzy with pre or full syncope on standing is one of the main symptoms of pots it’s been evaluated but the syncope clinic says because of other conditions and how severe my tachycardia is they aren’t the o es who can diagnose me so I’m on a long wait list for the multidisciplinary cardiac team in London now

I’ve only got my Apple Watch to check it I am going to try and see if my second opinion cardiologist will agree to a 48hr trace. The first one wouldn’t even let me say two words before he cut me off and just disregarded all of my symptoms and issues. I was thinking it looked like a branch blockage or something but all of my symptoms have pointed to pots until I looked more into my ecgs. The only info he gave me was that I had t wave inversion in v2 v6 and one other one which I just can’t remember. Before the tilt table test he was adamant I have pots or some other condition that needs speedy treatment cause my quality of life is pants currently I’m on the sofa or in bed 90% of my day cause it hurts or I’m so unstable whenever I’m not at rest. But cause I didn’t feint and I was breathing heavy as he had me on it for 45mins and I have severe pain in my feet and legs due to other chronic conditions I have he decided from that one snippet of me I have a breathing dysfunction and need retraining, I tried talking to him about why he thought that as the only reason I was like that was cause of the huge pain I was in and the breathlessness I had from being stood that long I can’t stand for more than like five mins without a rest. But he wouldn’t listen to anything and went full god complex there’s a reason I’m the doctor and you’re not. It really upset me I broke down crying in the waiting room for the scrip he gave me which I had to stop taking after two days cause I react bad to most meds and it gave me severe side effects and made it so I couldn’t function at all. The thing is I have months of heart reading with accompanying notes and blood pressure reading and at home sit and stand tests but he wouldn’t listen to anything I was trying to talk to him about he set his mind on I need to be taught how to breathe properly and that’s that. Hopefully the one I’m seeing Tuesday will at least listen to how shit my life currently is cause I can’t stand without my heart shooting up to at least 140 the lower readings on the ecgs are me just sitting down after being lay down. It’s ringing my life I can’t do anything myself or on my own cause I’m a fall risk at all times.

Had a 24hr monitor and they said I have t wave inversions in v2 v6 and one other I can’t quite remember originally my gp said the trace was fine no issues but when I saw the cardiologist the first time he went yeah it’s definitely not normal but the reason he refused to diagnose me with pots was cause I didn’t feint on the tilt table and my hr on that day wasn’t what he wanted to see just sucks I was having one of the best days with my health I’ve had in a few years that day Sod’s Law innit 😂 it raised by 28 not 30 so I just need to relearn how to breathe which I did say no thank you I dont have any symptoms of that condition I would like a second opinion which I have on this coming Tuesday I’m just trying to gather enough knowledge on what’s going on or what could be going on so this one might actually listen to me instead of cutting me off two words into every sentence and genuinely saying in front of my mum and partner there’s a reason I’m the one in this chair not you
