Specializes in Cardiac Electrophysiology

It is most likely: not an accurate interpretation of the EKG especially if it is a computer interpretation. Long QT can be a very serious issue. Certain forms of long QT can trigger life threatening issues with exercise (dancing.) I think you should take the EKG to a qualified health care professional for evaluation so you can be reassured.
