Brief Answer:
Please, get this ECG interpreted by a cardiologist

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this concerning EKG reports. This results is an automated reading from self interpreting EKG machines. They need to be correlated with clinical information and interpreted by a trained EKG reader. I will not want to comment on these findings as they are not valid until confirmed by a specialist.

Having no symptoms and an EKG report that suggests so much calls for a closer look. A cardiologist is best placed to make a difference here. This EKG results are not representative and trust worthy enough for me to even label you with any disease condition.

They have no bearing on aviation/law enforcement. How you feel and your level of strength is more important than what a test says. And because you feel great, I will say you are great as well and fit for these career options.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

Brief Answer:
Get these results interpreted by a specialist!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank for the EKG report that you have uploaded.

I am not a trained EKG reader and as such I cannot interpret this strip. I am able to tel you what the final results from reading means and the implications but not reading the strip.

With no symptoms, there is no reason for me to consider these results valid. They make no sense and the various reported abnormalities do not point to a single possible cause. This is the more reason why I will not make any comment about them. Until they are ruled valid, it is not worth making comments on baseless readings.

This EKG has nothing to do with you and has no bearings on your future abilities and capabilities. Please, do not get worried over an artificial and imaginary problem.

I hope this helps. I wish you well.
