Couldn't say as to that. Only saw the poor chap being carted away. Would
have thought anything that looked terribly out of place would have been
mentioned to someone on the spot.

Had my first and so far only ECG before surgery in May. Few days later
had a post-surgical cardiac ultrasound. Have experienced stress-induced
arrhythmias for a few years now, but they always go away when I'm
relaxed. No one suggested seeing a cardiologist so assuming they still
aren't considered a problem and no one mentioned any difficulties when
seeking consent for the surgery from my mother (I was out of it at the
time).
