low ekg voltage normal for chiari?

Can any of you tell me if you have had or heard of having a very low voltage in your ekg reading?
My daughter does - in fact, when she had her first EKG done, the doctor had it done 3 more times because it was reading and I quote, "like a senior citizen who has had a stroke"....we have had tons of cardio work done - her echo cardiogram was fine, we have had a tilt table test done because of all the black outs she has had...they say her heart is fine....just wondering if this symptom is common with chiari patients?

Thanks -

You were diagnosed with TIA and CM.....what is TIA?
CM is chiari right? sorry very new to the forum....dont know all the lingo yet...

Is a low EKG indicative of anything ? They say everything else is fine - that your EKG reading is like your fingerprint - might be weird for some but if it works for you it's fine....does that make sense? I'm not so sure.....

Please give me details, would like to hear....thanks!

I cant tell you for sure because I was DX with a TIA and CM at the same time. My EKG was very low at the time.

Sorry :(
