The doctor noted on the ekd:  Extensive ST-T changes are borderline abnormal for age/sex.  (nonspecific) Does this help any?  

I am only 27 years old and I am a single mother of 3 children, I just want to be prepared!

Also, sometimes I have pain on the outside part of my left arm, do you think it could be heart related or could it be my anxiety making me think its my heart?  Would you go to a cardiologist for this?  I just lost my insurance and I cant afford unnecessary things.

Thanks

I can't comment on your ekg without seeing it. Your parameters as listed are all normal, but there are also the tracings which I cannot review. I would suggest asking the person who performed or ordered the EKG and see what is abnormal about it.
