Non specific sttwave changes Is it dangerous????

[Budoypapaitan]

I am just wondering is it a asap concern when your EKG shows non specific st t wave changes ????

Mmm..... interesting question. I’ve had these noted on hospital ECG and the answer when asked was - they could be significant and may indicate underlying issue but as all your other tests are OK then we won’t take this further.

Maybe ask your doctor?

Does the 'non-specific' change include a T wave inversion on any of the leads ? Sorry to worry you but if so then go and see a consultant NOW. My GP actually phoned the consultant whilst I was still with him and got me a next day appointment.

Of course if it's not that then maybe some more details would help. Post a picture of the ECG maybe ?

How to post picture

[Mike11]

I think you can only do that by starting a new post. Give it a try and obviously abort if you can't attach the ECG

If it were me and I had any changes in my EKG tracing I would err on the side of caution and get a cardiologist to evaluate it asap. People with 'normal' ekg's and that have no cardiac dx can often tolerate ekg abnormalities that a-fib patients can't. Only a doctor should make that determination. (in my opinion).
