Should I Fire my doctors?
Me and my hubby are ttc , but my doctor keeps stalling us .. I have been in and out of cardiologist offices, about three months ago I went to get my normal annual check up, they were taking my pulse and the nurse tells me I have an irregular pulse rate… Freaked me out… So I was sent for an emergency EKG, the results came back a week later saying that abnormalities were spotted. So they hooked me up with a holter monitor for 48 hours, well I guess that came out bad too because last week I was sent for another EKG, Echo Stress Test . I have an appointment for a very invasive procedure… These people want to put s catheter through my groin area all the way to the heart… I was not told of this procedure until I got a call from cardiology rescheduling my appoinment I was shocked due to the fact no one called me and told me I had this crap to be done .. I feel like as the patient I should be aware of what their plans are… They’re always saying it’s a simple procedure( after I drove to the hospital to get the next appointment date) i always think of course it’s simple for you , your not the one they’re talking about causing a heart attack on purpose… My question is should I have this procedure when their not even sure what’s wrong with my heart? I’m 25, their youngest cardiologist patient .. My dactor keeps telling me to wait until they get to the bottom of my heart problem… I refuse to wait, I’m still ttc, my husband is scared, I’m not… I feel like they are stalling for some reason… I was thinking about changing doctors but these people are supposed to be the best… I feel I can still do whatever heart test they want while at the same time have a baby…. Do you think I’m paranoid?

WHY IS GOING ON WITH MY HEART?!?HELP.?
Okay i just got released from the hospital today after being in for about 2 days. for food poisin and high pulse rate. They would have discharge me if it was only the food poison thing but i have this thing with my heart that just started happening 6 months ago when every once in a while my pulse elevates. But when i went in to the Emergency on sunday my pulse with the food poison was 200…so they had to keep me in to monitor my heart. and in the END AGAIN!!..they still dont know whats going on. it gets really annoying because overall im healthy they have done a bunch of test on me last time i was admitted and still they cant figure out what triggers my heart to beat so fast. They just told me it might be a ongoing health condition but not life threatening. ARE THEY RETARTED. OR em i stupid enuff to wait till i have more of these episodes and in the long run develope perminent damage to my heart and then i have a fucking weaken heart,right?.well anyways pray for me because im going to the extreme and go to stanford in a couple of days to see if they can figure it out. They have done blood test/echo/stress test/tredmill/x-ray/ekg/holter/.what more can i do?
