A member asked:
Could an st depression on ekg be caused by panic or an error? i'm 29/f/very thin and had 4 normal ekgs in the past.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Abnormal EKG: There are many things that can influence the electrocardiogram. ST depression can indicate ischemia (inadequate oxygen supply to the heart) and so it makes doctors take notice, but hyperventilation, some medications, and other medical conditions can also affect the ST. Consider a cardiology consultation to review your EKG.

If during an acute tachycardia episode with chest pain & SOB, EKG shows increase in PWA, prolonged P-wave duration, and ST depression, but EKG returns to normal after the episode. Do I still need to be concerned? Is this just stress or something more?
