i am 21 weeks preg and had a visit with a perinatal clinic.where the dr detected a low ventricular rate of 50-60 bpm everything else being normal.He said its a fetal heart block.is he sure or can this be an assumption at this stage.Is there any possibility that my baby s heart rate can improve in the coming weeks and she doesnt have a heart block?I am really worried.They have asked me to come for a follow up US in 4 weeks.Please help

For months, my husband has had sternum pain with exertion or strong emotions. He just had an EKG that showed a dip at the inferior lateral T-wave. The doctor ordered an imaging stress test (cardiolite), but we have a $3500 deductible and the test is $2500, so we cancelled until we have more info. Our fear is we'll pay $2500 and the test will be inconclusive and/or lead to another expensive test, and then another. Should we just go for a heart catheterization to begin with?

Hello, I had Coronary Ct scan. I heard that it is very dangerous because it has high dose of radiation which triger radiation induced cancer. Just single coronary Ct can induce the cancer risk? |
