Hi and thanks for using the forum.
Unfortunately, the information that prints on the EKG is often not correct. The ER doctor looks at the EKG itself to determine whether it is normal or not. Did they give you any info when you were in the ER? Why did you have the EKG done? Do you have any cardiac history? If you have questions that were unanswered, you can call your primary care doctor and ask that they review the EKG for you. They should then be able to answer any questions that you have. Good luck.
