A member asked:

My ekg shows early repolarization. can i have a cardiac arrest? is early repolarization dangerous? i am 22 years old?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal, normal, norm: Early repolarization is completely normal. You have no more risk of cardiac arrest than I do (actually, much less than I since you're 22 and I'm 62).
