Received a call from my surgeon's office yesterday saying I needed a Cardiac Consult/Clearance for Surgery because my EKG came back borderline abnormal, and I cannot have this surgery until I get cleared. They recommended me to a cardiac specialist who's first available appointment was in August. Uh no... not postponing this surgery if at all avoidable. Called my GP, and the scheduler said that they could do this and could get me in tomorrow (Thursday). OK... felt like I was getting somewhere only to discover an hour later that they don't do the consult/clearance, but they do do EKG's for pre-surgery physicals. They finally got me in with a cardiac specialist for tomorrow (Friday). My GP's nurse said a borderline EKG could be caused by a number of things, but I'm hoping it's just stress. Please wish me luck!
