Hi , I have just returned from a gp appointment ( which was requested by the surgery not by me) when I got there they apologised profusely as an x-Ray I had previously had was overlooked. I had an x-Ray on my legs and ankles as I was in pain where they then discovered calcification of the arteries in both feet and ankles (aged47) they gave me blood tests as this is associated primarily with diabetes and they were all negative . No follow up was issued. I have recently suffered with my heart rate falling into the 30’s whilst I am asleep. Very low blood pressure. Extreme bouts of dizziness, brain fog and general feelings of being unwell during the day. They now feel there is a connection. Feeling concerned as to what this can mean .
For clarity this x-Ray was done 2 years ago so I am assuming things have worsened I feel really let down nothing happened at the time. Has anyone experienced anything similar ? I am now being told there will be lots of tests , an ECG monitor first . What questions should I be asking ? I felt blindsided today and couldn’t think straight . Want to be better prepared when I go in again. Any suggestions gratefully received .
