See a cardiologiest immediately.
Had a recent scare, had an x-ray done (for a nagging rib bruise issue) and it showed a potential “enlargement” of the heart. Dr. Google was telling me I was going to die. Doubly paniced because I had WPW and open heart surgery decades ago to correct it. The panic was…well bad.
Made an appointment with cardiologist had a ultrasound done. Inconclusive.
Then had an MRI scheduled. Cardiologist called and said everything was fine.
But for two months I backed everything way down. Psychologically I couldn’t go hard even when the doctor’s said I was low risk. It wasn’t until I got the clean bill of health that I could go back to not being rate rate obsessed with every flight of stairs.
Only a cardiologiest (or two) can tell you for sure.
I did see my cardiologist about this months ago and that is where the insurance company got this information. The cardiologist did all of the tests you mentioned and more.
I think I should get a second opinion. Anyone have a good cardiologist they can recommend in the Philadelphia area?
Like WTF does this stuff even mean:
CAD-RADS 2
consider evaluation of non-acute coronary syndrome etiology, if normal troponin and no ECG changesconsider referral for outpatient follow-up for preventive therapy and risk factor modificationif clinical suspicion of acute coronary syndrome is high or if high-risk plaque features are noted, consider hospital admission with cardiology consultation
CAD-RADS 2
no further cardiac investigationconsider non-atherosclerotic causes of chest pain; consider preventive therapy and risk factor modification, particularly for patients with nonobstructive plaque in multiple segments
