What Does This EKG Test Report For Intense Pain Under The Left Rib Indicate?
Had an EKG at ER for severe pain under left rib cage radiating through my chest to back and up my shoulder blade. The EKG reports a sinus arrhythmia, ventricular premature complex, and probable left atrial enlargement. They sent me home with a diagnosis of Costochondritis and I am following up with my local doctor tomorrow. I have been in severe pain for 6 days now. Could you translate the EKG report?

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
But it would b helpful if u could send me the pic of your ECG but as much I understand with your words I feel that premature complexes z nothing to worry. And you might also get a chest X-ray done. It would b helpful in diagnosis and better repeat your ECG again to rule out other cardiac anomalies.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
