I would try to find an EP and replace the current doc that is not listening. We know our bodies and when something is off. I would keep good records of your blood pressures and symptoms so the doc can get a good picture of what you are going thru. I had years of docs not hearing me and they scoffed it off as anxiety. It wasn’t until I had 3rd. Degree heart block that they realized it was not in my head. Do you have any big hospitals in your area or a hospital advocate you can get a doc thru? I got my cardiologist’s name from one of the cardiac nurses in the hospital after a bad experience with my first cardiologist. Don’t give up…

@rbl I believe women get the brush off far more often than men. I have experienced it first hand too.

What’s EP?
