An EKG is not a reliable source to determine chamber dimensions...ekg is useful to to determine rhythmetic problems. An echocardiogram can give an estimate of dimensions that has some validity, if there is any concern. I doubt you have a heart problem if you can walk at a good pace for 1 1/2 miles there are no symptoms with exertion. If you have a patthogenically enlarged heart, there usually is a fast heart rate at rest (over 100) and shortness of breath with exercise.
