Any Suggestion For ECG Result, Low Voltage In The Limb Leads Only ?

I recently had a ECG done for a job interview. The result showed low voltage in the limb leads only. The doctor didn t seem concerned, but also said they were not a cardiologist. I m 27 and in relatively good health. I do have a few extra pounds, and one aid mentioned that fat could influence the readings. Should I be concerned?

No. Low voltage in your case is mainly due to extra fat that is correct. Dont worry just control your weight if your over-weight. Nothing to worry at present.
