Could Inverted T Waves In EKG Be Due To Clotting Of Blood?
I have a clotting disorder but am taking blood thinners.during an iron infusion my BO went from 110/59 to 178/98. I was half way through my infusion. I have had at least 4 other series in the past 4 years or so. My EKG showed inverted T waves. Could a clot be causing this. I have a nuclear stress test this week. Just curious

Hello,
Thanks for using HCM.
I am Dr Rakesh Sharma answering your query.
I can understand your concern.
EKG showing inverted T wave is indicative of myocardial ischemia.
Colt is one of the possibilities.
Rise in BP may be due to rapid infusion or anxiety.
Please wait for the result, till then keep following your doctors advice.
Hope , this suggestion will help you.
Good luck.
