Question: Hello, I am a 33yo female who just received a routine EKG. I was told it looks fabulous and even has a rarely seen "u-wave" indicative of a healthy heart. I made the mistake of googling and now would like more information. I do not have a picture of the graphs, but numerical values are attached.

Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome to Ask a Doctor service!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that this finding "U wave" can be found in healthy and normal persons.

It can also be related to electrolyte imbalances or cardiac ischemia. But as you have no symptoms, there is no reason to worry about.

Could you please upload the ECG images for me to review?

I remain at your disposal for any further questions whenever you need!

Kind regards,

Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
