Hey, I am a 47 year old male . I am constantly out of breath, and have bouts of extreme fatigue at least one day a week and sometimes it last for a week or two. I have constant mild chest pain and bouts of sharp back behind heart area. I have normally blood blood pressure and my resting heart rate is anywhere from 70 to 110.
nuclear stress test results are:
1.fixed basal inferior wall and inferolateral wall defect with no wall motion abnormalities.
2.Moderate LV enlargement with mild LV systolic dysfunction
3.EF 52%
4 nsr low voltage qrs, incomplete BBB
Two weeks later echo results summary
1.mildly dilated LV
2.mild global hypokinesis with mildly decreased LV systolic function.
3. EF 50%
4.concentric LV hypertrophy
5.Trace mitral regurgitation
6.mild tricuspid regurgitation with RSVP of 38
7. Impaired LV relaxation.
One week after that, a different cardiologist did a heart cath and found no blockage and EF of 60 and he told me I didn't have a heart problem. This Dr never saw the stress test or the echo test only the reports. The stress test and echo was interpreted by a different cardiologist from a different hospitality than the one I had the cath at, also the cardiologist that interpreted the test also specializers in nuclear medicine. So I'm confused. With this information should I follow up with a different cardiologist are am I OK. Two of the three test showed abnormal. Could this be cardiomyopathy?
