Help?
I recently had my first and fifth EKG all in the same day all showing Flip T waves in the inferior and intro lateral leads. What could cause this? And what is this?

The inverted T-waves can be a sign of heart disease but there are many causes including medication, electrolyte abnormalities and sometimes the T-waves can change depending when you ate last.--TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR!!!
p.s. I have had palpitations for a long time which could be felt by my mother when I was a child. I have always thought this was normal and put it off as nerves.
thanks for the answer. I had a normal EKG today but, since I have a strong family history of CAD and 3 different machines recorded the abnormal t waves the cardiologist wants to do an ECHO just to be sure.thanks again
