Can anyone tell me if this is ok

[bee2]

I've been feeling a bit funny so just used my Kardia, can anyone tell me if anything is going on here. It's a bit blurry as a photo of my tablet screen. Thanks.

It looks like normal rhythm from the partial strip shown.

What is your heart rate? It appears low on the strip and depending on how low it is compared to your normal rate -- maybe that is why you are feeling off.

I have no training reading EKGs, so for anything conclusive, I would show it to your EP, or send it to one of Kardia's doctors for a quick analysis.

Hi my heart rate was 41 but that's not new not sure if getting up to fetch the kardia sorted out the weird feeling.. 😉

Good morning - it looks to be showing Bradycardia - low heart rate but not able to see what your HR is. Now low for some would be normal for others but as you are ‘feeling a bit funny’ please contact your GP and ask for a professional ECG or go to A&E if this continues.

Do you monitor your HR? What would ‘normal’ for you be? How much lower and for how long is this? All questions that would help your doctor work out what is going on.

Hope that helps.

Hi, my heart rate for the last few years has been low, can get to 32bpm and I am definitely an athlete. This has been noted whilst in hospital where the machine bleeps till I get out the door but nobody seems concerned. I have diagnosed Long QT syndrome. Had Bigeminy show up before and AF with Bradycardia 🤔

It seems normal in shape, with the usual PQRS waves, but, as it says, shows bradycardia, a heart rate lower than 60bpm. I regularly have the same.

What does feeling "weird" mean? If you feel different and unwell, then I would phone your doctor to have a professional view.

Your "long QT" syndrome is something that you will presumably, have discussed with your GP or specialist, too. I gather this can make sufferers feel odd, so if this is involved, again, - a call to your doctor is the way forward.

Usually odd symptoms, and especially new ones, are far more worrying the they need be, but they always need a professional assessment. They do often simply pass and we eventually forget them, but they can be deeply disturbing while they last.

Hello and thank you for sharing the ECG strip, have you had an opportunity to email this to your doctor for advice, as they will be able to advise if further treatment is required?

I have not seen a cardiologist since my last heart attack last July. I need to start being more pushy 😉

It is not unknown that you may have been discharged back to your GP for ongoing monitoring. If symptoms change or episodes become more frequent or problematic, contact the GP who may prefer to refer you back to consultant, either an Electrophysiologist or Cardiologist.

Heart rate is 300 divided by 7 large blocks so about 42 bpm. Bradycardia.

QRS is 2.5 small blocks at 40ms per small block is 100ms. Normal is under 110ms.

T wave is strange due to its height and double hump at times. Not sure about this and could be electrolyte unbalance.

[bee2 in reply to Palpman]

Hi thanks for that I will check out my electrolytes 😉

Your QT looks to be in the normal range for the slow HR.
