FLIPPED T-waves?
Can anyone tell me what flipped t-waves, I have obtained some medical records, and I'm unsure what that means from a past EKG test
Can you please tell me if it is normal, for my EKG to be normal, and then 7 months later it is abnormal with inverted T waves? Keep in mind that i have presisent chest pains, palpitations, and fatigue that seems to have gotten worse

Hi, flipped T waves could mean inverted T waves. They are seen in myocardial infarction and in structural heart disease, such as coronary ischemia or left ventricular hypertrophy. On the other hand, we also may see inverted T-waves in people whose tests are completely normal. So, the finding is correlated with other tests and clinical symptoms. Regards.
