A member asked:
Doc won't send me to cardiologist unless my serum treponin is abnormal my ekg was borderline flat t-wave had it done for chest pain what should i do?

Agree with doc: But for a different reason which has nothing to do with troponin. The reason not to send you is that your ekg abnormality is very nonspecific and at your age there is very low likelihood of heart disease. Unless your symptoms strongly suggest heart disease you need reassurance.
