Hi and thank you for asking!
I read your query and understood your concerns.

From what you are describing it looks like ecg machine report that need to be confirmed by a cardiologist.

Please keep in mind that an abnormal ecg machine report, doesn't necessarily mean that you have cardiac problems. This is why it's important that ecg should be checked by a cardiologist.

I would like to check your ecg by my self before giving my opinion. Can you upload the ecg image for me?

I'm waiting for the Ecg image to be uploaded.
Meantime wish you health!

These ecgs were taken one day apart

Following advice.

Detailed Answer:
Hi back,

After reviewing your Ecg I would like to say that it's normal. The only thing seen is an isolated negative T wave in lead III, that has no clinical relevance if it's found only in one lead.

This is why you shouldn't worry you have a normal ecg. The isolated negative T wave may be related to the fact that this time the leg electrodes were placed on the legs.

Hope this was of help!
Wish you health!
