Picture this: A young marathon runner, let's call her Sarah, comes into my clinic. She’s at the peak of her fitness, feeling fantastic, but her new smartwatch flagged a really slow resting heart rate. #AthletesHeart #cardiacadaptation #echocardiogram #EKG #exercise #hearthealth #hypertrophiccardiomyopathy
Sometimes, news from the doctor’s office can feel like it comes out of left field. #benigntumor #cardiactumor #echocardiogram #hearttumor #heartvalvetumor #PapillaryFibroelastoma #strokerisk

🪑Dr Rockstar ♫I forgot to tell you @JemGirl777
The #echocardiogram was almost #romantic. I went in. Wasting no time, she turned out the lights! It was like a movie where someone gets pulled behind the door unexpectedly...
IFR (she/her)Turns out my “follow up appointment” yesterday was actually an appointment for an echo.
Still haven’t seen a doctor. Still don’t know what the plan is.
But I’ve had an ultrasound of my heart and it sounded pretty cool.
I’m waiting again now for what happens next.
