Mel asked:


My husband attended a hospital with intermittant chest pain. After an ECG that was borderline and showed the above abnormalities and a BP reading of 210/120. He was sent away with a diagnosis of digestive/gallstone problems but asked to visit his GP for BP checks. he died 5 days later from heart failure due to heart disease. Should the ECG, if done properly shown up more?
