A member asked:
I often wake up at night gasping feeling short of breath but my ekg test said my heart was normal. could it still be a heart condition?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, possible: If these symptoms are persistent, then an echocardiogram of the heart would be reasonable to further evaluate.
