ignore imterrogation reports?

I wonder if any one else has thought of just ignoring what the report reads. 2,400,000 PAC runs in 56 days. Wow. Sounds terrifying. Doctor says no, not to worry. 6001 AHR episodes in same period. Wow again. If you feel fine and have no symptoms, not to worry says the doc. My AHR episodes have been going on for days says the report. My arm blood pressure taker and my wrist one says pulse in 60-80 range. BP from 110/60 to 130/70. If I am having AHR episodes shouldn't my pulse be faster? I really am at a loss to understand. I am thinking of calling my GP and asking her for a referral to an EP just to go over every single bit of info on the report. I do feel ok, not very active but I never was.
I am sleeping with the aid of 1 mg lunesta. No side effects and sound sleep. Anyone else despairing of ever understanding the interrogation readings? Obviously, I could just ask for a referral to wherever DonR and Electric Frank and Tracey E reside so they could explain it all. Just don't think Medicare would cover it.

I have never seen my interrogation report. If the technician is happy with it, then I am okay with that. I am one of those people with their head in the sand. At my last visit they said there is a problem with 1 lead and they will see me again in 6mths but I am not concerned, I feel great. Sadly Electric Frank passed away a few weeks back and is very much missed by us all. I am sure someone will be able to help you with your report, but if you feel good, just enjoy.

It takes a while to figure it all out!! But really, it's not a big deal if you can never explain it like Frank. As long as you feel good and have a basic understanding, that's more than enough. I've been very lucky to have a rep and dr who take the time to talk. I had no idea that wasn't the norm until I came here. I do love my team, if you find yourself in south Florida, look me up.

If you feel good and the dr says the pac's are harmless, then don't dwell on it. I rarely check my pulse or bp, only if I don't feel well. It's too easy to get caught up in the details and stress unnecessarily.
