Hello all. I am working my way through the MedXPress form in preparation for my 3rd class medical. My medical history has me confused about how to answer the form questions.
My situation: in the past I have had heart palpitations severe enough to put me in the hospital for observation. This happened once about 12 years ago and then again about 3 years ago. The diagnosis: too much caffeine, work and not enough sleep. Test results including EKGs showed nothing physically wrong. I was sent on my way with a nice hospital bill and told to work less and drink less coffee.
The problem has not come back.
How should I answer the form questions about heart problems, anxiety and have I ever been hospitalized? Obviously I am not going to lie. I am thinking answer "no" to the heart and anxiety questions and "yes" to the hospitalization part and just explain things to the doc. Does this sound like the right way to proceed?
Also: under health care provider visits does that include dentists?
Thank you for your comments.
