Regurgitation
I have a mild AR (aortic regurgitation), presently have a valid flying status. It was first detected in 1998 and went through a serious of tests and was declared fit to resume flying duties. The problem at hand is that my ECG now shows some 'T' inversions that were never there prior to 1998, although my annual 'ECHO CARDIOGRAMS' shows no change.
Any info on why the changes in ECG where as I'm physically active and run 5.5 km 3 days a week with no difficulty.
Thanks in advance

I have to say that this is a long-shot, but 72 hours prior to the next cardiogram, limit your intake of stimulants–in particular coffee–and see if it makes any difference. Diet during this period on very bland food. No booze either I'm affraid.

Thank you Loose Rivets, although I'm not a caffine drinker and enjoy an occansional drink, will give it a try, however any further info on this subject is much appreciated, especially from the flying status point of view.
