Neurosis is medically referred to as neuroticism. The electrocardiogram in neurosis sometimes shows abnormalities (e.g., sinus tachycardia, sinus arrhythmia, and occasionally flat or mildly inverted T waves in leads II, III, and aVF), but such electrocardiograms are not specific.

2. Endocrinology: blood test for five items of thyroid function, thyroid ultrasound, CT and MRI of both kidneys to determine whether the patient has hyperthyroidism, pheochromocytoma and other diseases.
3. If the patient still has the above ECG manifestations after exclusion of his organic diseases, then the main focus is on psychiatric treatment, supplemented by drugs and other physical therapy.
If the patient suffers from neurosis and has ECG abnormalities, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital to avoid misdiagnosis.
