Brief Answer:
Please attach the photo of ECG in the followup query.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns.
As per your description the symptoms may be due to hyperthyroidism( thyroid excess). The ECG findings are inconclusive and may be due to age related changes.
I suggest you to repeat the TFT ( thyroid function test ). You can attach the ECG photo in the followup query for a detailed evaluation.
Waiting for your response.
Thanks
