edited to add inferior is lead III... forgot an I
I'm going through the exact same thing now. My EKG showed "nonspecific inferior T abnormalities". The doc said I had a flattened T-wave. I did a stress test and everything came back normal but the t-wave abnormality was still there. Next is the echo. I have no chest pain or symptoms of heart problems. Were you given a reason why your t-waves were "abnormal" on the ekg? My doc said it could just be how my ekg is. If you have any further insight, please feel free to post. As you can imangine I am quite nervous about this!
Thanks
