toruosity of the aorta

by carliem, Mar 13, 2008 08:25PM
What does this mean? My mother has been having a lot of health problems. She has been complaining of chest pain and when  we go to the ER they just give her some nitro. I am worried that she may be close to a heart attack. They have found that she has toruosity of the aorta. I heard the nurse saying something about inverted t waves, which I have not found out what they are yet either. I have been trying to find any information will very little luck. She has also been found to have myocardial ischmia. If anybody knows anything about this or can shine some light on this please let me know. Thank you!!
