DEAR USER
THANKS FOR CONSULTING AT HCM

I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERN
AUTOMATED ECG MACHINES USUALLY MISINTERPRET THE ECG REPORT.. AS IT IS NOT EASILY READ BY THE MACHINE

YOUR ECG NEED TO BE INTERPRETED BY THE CARDIOLOGIST AND NOT BY MACHINE.. HE USUALLY MATCHES YOUR REPORT WITH YOUR SYMPTOMS SYMPTOM AND THEN COMES TO A FINAL DIAGNISIS

SO IF YOUR CARDIOLOGIST HAS ASKED NOT TO WORRY YOU CAN RELY ON HIM AND CONTINUE WITH HIS TREATMENT

HOPE I HAVE ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION.. YOU CAN MESSAGE ME FOR ANY FURTHER CONCERNS
