I assume my TROPONIN was zero (or very low) when I arrived in the hospital because I was not there for a heart issue. I just did a stress EKG proactively 2 months ago and passed with flying colors. I knew my heart was good. Then, they gave me a shot of EPI and anti-histamine cocktail that caused me to have a heart attack. It was IMMEDIATE once the drugs hit my system. My troponin was at 1800 and rising when they scheduled the angiogram. The angiogram came back with zero damage, zero blockages and no plaque! They called my episode a "drug induced coronary vasospasm."
BTW my cardiologist said he would have never given me epi to treat the allergic reaction i was having. Then, I was referred to an allergist doctor and he told me that epi does not work on allergic reactions to lisinopril. Essentially, if it occurs again (which it could even though I am off lisinopril), I need to go the ER to have them monitor my airway and I essentially need to ride it out.
