Short PR Interval

I'm really concerned now about my palpatations developing into a dangerous arrythmia.  I was reviewing my ekg's from awhile back and 3 out of 6 of them I have a short PR Interval. They are 112 ms, 119ms, 118ms, 122ms, 143s, 124ms.  The one with the 119ms also says High QRS Voltage and Q's in II, III, and aVF.  I was really concerned about Wolf White Parkinson's (WPW) syndrome, because of this and all the palpatations that I feel.  Could you please tell me what all this represents and if I should get this more checked out from what I've given you. Thank you so much!!! You're a life saver.  On that particular EKG it also says accelarated AV conduction.
Thanks again,
         Michael

Remember that EKG's are only part of the picture.  If you read this forum often, and you do, you will know that EKG's are not very accurate.  They need cardiologists to interpret them correctly.  If you have had at least SIX EKG's, and no one has expressed any concern over your PR interval, then I would surely not be concerned.  What you really need to do is figure out how to increase your faith in your doctors, and learn to focus on living your life, IMO.
