I like to read up just a little - not so I know more than the doc - but just so I can figure out the questions I want to ask and so I can understand him better.  

This is fascinating reading...

Hello.

You should bring a copy of your EKG (not just the numbers, the entire picture)  to a cardiologist for interpretation, just to rule out that your heart has repolarization (recharging) abnormalities, because you have a slightly long QT time and the "nonspecific T wave abnormality" (which may indicate the same, though most likely not).

Maybe it's also appropriate with an echo (ultrasound of the heart) to see if the elevated blood pressure has caused the heart walls to thicken (LVH). EKG machines often misinterpret this and there are lots of false positives and negatives.

Your other numbers are within normal limits but the numbers themselves are useless (and often incorrect), a doctor must see the picture, not the numbers.

Some  here are knowledgeable on EKG (ECG) but this forum/community is not one where you can get a medial reading of your results.  I would assume if your doctor didn't see any need to discuss the EKG with you, there is nothing there to worry about.   I get a couple of EKGs each year, and don't even see the results... suppose I could ask, but then I'd be in the same position you are, wondering what all the numbers mean.  

I assume you can go back to your doctor (or at least his office staff) and get an answer a question:  What does my EKG show?
