Early repolarization: Early repolarization is a pattern seen on an electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG.) It may be more common in young men, especially black men. There is a lot of medical literature on whether it is associated with increased risk of arrhythmias. For example see http://bit.ly/2jXxNuS which reports long term follow up of a large cohort. Whether you should worry depends on the details of your history.
