i am on hrt..my ekg showed a weird spike in one of the sections..when i asked what it meant the nurse said it was normal for someone on test to have that mark....

The low test dose you are on is really just replacement, and shouldn't cause a problem. The ephedra, on the other hand, could cause all sorts of irregular beats. If you stop the ephedra beforehand you should be OK.

Try ending your cycle 2-3 weeks before you see the doctor, then your test levels will plummet and he can give your the prescription. 100mg per week is on the low side for HRT, I think. Some of the online clinics recommend much more.

I'm no doc but a paramedic who is familiar with EKG's also I am on HRT And yes the ephedrine could def cause irregularities in a EKG, but so wil caffeine etc.

I'm an internist & cardiologist.

Ephedra will cause irregs, but usually only a fast heart rate...Which can be caused by nerves, caffeine, etc...
If you have high blood pressure (genetically or from supplements) you can place added strain on your heart & develop left ventricular hypertrophy which will most definitely show on an EKG.
Otherwise, in most cases, you'd need to have a pre-excisiting condition in order to have ephedra show on an EKG.
