Why would your GP say wait 3 months?
Posted by TarheelIllini
|
I was coming off a respiratory illness and that EKG was OK.
Posted by Illiniphil
|
You had an initial EKG and it was fine, then it was bad three months later?
Posted by gvibes
|
Because our healthcare is managed by insurance companies.*

I’d get a new GP, feels like Phil dodged a bullet because his GP

I must have been misusing the term "100%" all my life.

Nope. Can happen over time and be survivable if other blood flow compensates*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
That's exactly what happened.*

My neighbor just survived a widow maker from the extra capillaries that grew around*
