My Experience of a Tilt Table Test, ECG, and Echocardiogram

This EndoLife

Last week on Instagram I asked if anyone wanted to hear about my experience of two ECGs and a tilt table test as part of my ongoing chest pain investigations, and the majority of those who voted said yes!

So, I wanted to record this whilst the experience was fresh in my mind.

If you’re not sure why I had these tests, you can listen to episode ep.204/ the thing that’s been happening with my heart and why it’s important to talk about it in the endo community.
