Hello. Thank you for your question and welcome to HCM. I understand your concern.
Electrocardıography (EKG) ıs a test done to evaluate the electrical state of the heart muscle. When the heart muscles suffers from a problem, mostly helpful in coronary artery blockages which do not provide enough supply with oxygen and nutrients to it, heart muscle cells start to suffer. Sınce the heart cell membranes are under a tight control by ions, they reflect this ''suffering'' by deflecting certain segments upward or downward, ın the EKG. In certain cases, there may be abnormalities in EKG of a normal heart muscles, due to artefacts, connecting the probes wrong, or a result of some minor, benign, chronic changes. Since all other tests came back normal, I am assuming troponin, CK-MB and other blood work, then there is nothing to worry about. However, I would recommend you to undergo an echocardiogram, to assess the motion and function of heart muscle and valvular apparatus.
I hope I was helpful. Take care.
Kind regards,
Dr. Meriton
