Hi
I have recently had what seems to be a minor cardiac event. The consultant dealing with the case has banned me from driving for six months. I did not lose consciousness during the event but was only breathless / sweaty for around fifteen minutes minutes. I was driving at the time and pulled safely into a layby.
Despite having numerous ECG's and echo and an angiogram, there is no evidence of any condition. Because there is no evidence of any condition, I am not been treated for any condition (If I was I could return to driving after one month's successful treatment). Hence why I must wait six months
He is defining the situation as Altered Awareness. I have asked for a second opinion, but it feels a little unfair and a bit of a catch 22.
Does anyone have any knowledge / awareness of this?
Many thanks
