What Does This EKG Report Indicate?
EKGs always result abnormal. I have 2 stents & another blockage not lRge enough to stent 40%. I m 61, F, 5 2, 135. I refuse future EKGs bc I ve never had a normal. Old medical records state abnormal EKG -anteroseptal infarct. What does this mean?

HI
YOUR ELECTROCARDIOGRAM INDICATES ANTEROSEPTAL INFARCT.THIS MEANS THAT YOU HAD A HEART ATTACK PREVIOUSLY IN THE FRONT PARR OF HEART MUSCLE.AS YOU HAVE ALREADY UNDERGONE ANGIOPLASTY WITH 2 STENTS I WILL SUGGEST THAT YOU SHOULD BE ON DRUGS LIKE ASPIRIN ,STATIN GROUP OF TABLETS AND ANTIANGINALS LIFELONG
FOLLOW UP WITH YOUR PHYSICIAN REGULARLY .
WISH YOU GOOD HEALTH!!
THANKS
