Turns out I'm probably going to have to make a trip to Hawaii (possibly Japan) to get checked out. I'm told there's currently no U.S. military cardiologist in Korea. I'll know more on Tuesday.

I'm taking the whole situation pretty seriously. However, I don't have much confidence in the locals that I've seen so far, so I'm pretty optimistic. I've always thought I was in excellent cardiovascular health, although it's my understanding that Brugada can show up in asymptomatic people...

Doczilla: If you'd like to see the EKGs, I could scan them and PM a link next week. For educational purposes only of course.

I'd planned on going to SFAS for Feb/March. This is turning out to be an interesting turn of events.

edit: The exact finding of the local cardiologist was that I have a right bundle branch block, with possible Brugada. I'm willing to bet that the abnormalities on my EKG are going to turn out to be benign once I see a specialist. Better safe than sorry and if it means a trip to Tripler, which is warm, I'm can't complain.
