Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

First, can you send your full EKG report, so I can analyze it myself?

Next, according to your saying, in the last EKG you ran, it was found atrial fibrillation with minor inferior repolarization disturbance. This might be due to:
- ischemic heart disease
- pulmonary hypertension
- LV systolic overload
or a normal finding.

Further investigations are needed to determine the right cause and severity of the condition:
- clinical evaluation
- cardiac echo
- chest X-ray
- Holter monitoring
- stress test

Hope it helped!
