Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Since you are running and doing regular exercise, no need to worry much for this ecg report.
But better to rule any structural pathology of heart because ecg is stating left atrial abnormality.
So get done 2d echo. 2d echo is sonography of heart.
It will tell you more about heart chambers, pumping, valvular functions etc.
It well also tell if any structural abnormality in left atria is present or not.
So get done 2 d echo.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
