What Could Cause QRS Contour Abnormality In EKG?

I had an ekg done and the reading was: QRS (T) contour abnormality consistent with anteroseptal infarct?
My blood pressure was 120/80. I have never had high cholesterol.
I have never smoke or drank but I am about 100 pounds overweight-no other symptons other than a stressful job.

Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello , Qrs showing antero septal infarct means that you had a silent heart attack in the past , I say silent as you haven't mentioned any chest pain history or treatment in the past .
However I would like you to understand that what you have mentioned is an automated machine interpretation which is a wrong many a times and should be viewed in a clinical context, so I would request that you show the ecg to a cardiologist or you may upload on our forum so we can interpret it for you .
