View allI'm really concerned because my heart beat rate has been around 100-110 bpm throughout the day, but when I'm resting, like right after I wake up, it's at 80 bpm. Are these numbers something I should be worried about? Ive had an ECG treadmill test and an electrolyte test, and my doctor said they were all normal. I'm still worried, so what should I do about this high heart rate?

I'm looking at these ECG results, and I'm kinda worried. It mentions things like incomplete right bundle branch block, sinus tachycardia, and negative T-wave anterior. There's also something about right atrial enlargement. It even says "probably abnormal ECG." Should I be concerned about these findings? Is any of this stuff serious? I'm really not sure what all these terms mean for my health.
