This part of the EKG test is not accurate at all. I wouldn't worry about it, but definatly ask your Dr. about it.

No, you did not have a heart attack. Anti-Fib is right that that stuff isn't accurate, but I wouldn't even bother asking your doctor about it. Ignore the "diagnosis" ECG machines print out. They're absolutely meaningless and every doctor on the planet ignores them for that reason.

Every single ECG I've had in the last 15-20 years has declared I had an inferior infarct at some point in the past. Not one single doctor has ever bothered even mentioning it, and that's because they know it's nonsense.

Carey and AFib


Thank you both so much, I had a bad day yesterday I thought I might have had a heart attack and wondered why U of Michigan didn't talk to me about it.

Oh, I'm sure if they saw evidence of a heart attack they'd have done more than talk about it.

I get odd reading all the time. Anteroseptal infarct Is the most common. I have quizzed dr natale’s PN and my local EP plus 3-5 cardiologists at Cedar Sinai woman’s heart center within the years. All said to ignore, that the echo was fine and it said Anteroseptal infarct probably from poor lead placement of the 12 leads.

Don’t worry. I’m sure they took a cardiac marker lab and it was within range. As Carey said, if it was serious you would had peaked their interest and more tests would had been performed.

Thanks Susan, I guess I didn't pay that much attention to the results before, if my doctor didn't say anything I just assumed everything was ok. Now with the computer and the portal in which results are posted I am paying closer attention.
