A member asked:
Normal ekgs and chest xrays, but i still want further evaluation. however the doc is reluctant to do that relying on what ekg says. suggestion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Evaluation: There is a great excess of medical testing done which isn't really indicated. Often it is prompted by anxious patients pushing for unneeded testing. Discuss your status with your doctor and ask frankly what is going on and whether there is a reason to test further.
