My sister's been dealing with some pain on her left side, like under her armpit and shoulder, for a month. She had an ECG done back then, and it seemed normal. But now, she just got another ECG and it said "borderline abnormal." Should we think about doing another one or maybe see a cardiologist? What do you suggest?

View allI'm looking at my ECG report, and it mentions "ST-segment elevation anterior borderline." I'm not really sure what that means. Should I be worried about this? Can you explain what's going on?
The ECG report showing ST-segment elevation (anterior) indicates a potential issue with the heart's blood supply. This could be a sign of a heart attack or other cardiac problem. It is important to seek medical attention immediately for further evaluation and treatment. In such cases, medications like aspirin, nitroglycerin, and clopidogrel may be prescribed to help improve blood flow to the heart.
