Difficult to say: There are varying degrees of "abnormal". Dsiscuss specific abnormalities with your doctor or cardiologist.

Unanswerable: Wow. That is so ambiguous that there is absolutely nothing we can comment on. But, if you have an abnormal ekg you have the right to know what that means and your doctor should be more than happy to explain it to you.
