Any Suggestion For Having Abnormal ECG, Prolonged Qt Interval, Normal Rhythm?
Please Doc! My Name Is Tracy I am 36yrs old I have been having shortness of breath so I went to for xray and ECG. The xray said there is prominence of the Aortic knuckle. Heart size is within normal limits. There is no active lung disease. The costophrenic sulci are free. The surrounded bony thorax appears grossly normal. But the ECG I did said abnormal ECG, prolonged QT Interval. Normsl rhythm. What should I do? Very urgent please

HI
Well come to HCM
QT interval in EKG is depolarization and repolarization of heart muscle conduction system and this is some time detected in healthy female and this is not the danger sign unless associated with some other factor here the exact interval is not given here otherwise I would have give some opinion, take care.
