My mom, who's 50, has been taking Thyronorm 50 for her thyroid. Her doctor mentioned noticing some changes in her ECG twice during her follow-ups and suggested she should get a TMT and an Echo done. Her 2D Echo looks normal with an LVEF of 65%, but her TMT came back positive for inducible ischemia at a moderate workload level. She's mentioned having shortness of breath sometimes when she's climbing stairs, but other than that, she's fine and doesn't have any chest pain or a history of high blood pressure or diabetes. What would you suggest as the next steps for her?

What does a borderline ECG with an unconfirmed diagnosis mean on an ECG report? Is it something I should be worried about? My heart rate is 93, PR is 99, QRS duration is 82, QT is 330, and QTC is 411. Could you help me understand what these numbers indicate?

Borderline ECG unconfirmed diagnosis means that there are some findings on the ECG that are not definitive enough to make a clear diagnosis. In your case, with a heart rate of 93, PR interval of 99, QRS duration of 82, QT interval of 330, and QTc interval of 411, these values are within normal limits. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and interpretation of the ECG results. No specific medication is needed based on this information.
