Result within normal range. T wave abnormality is non-specific and may be seen with and without a cardiac problem. What you need is a good history and detailed examination to interpret your symptoms. Unfortunately, the results your troponin test and its significance AS APPLIED TO YOU were apparently not explained to you. A single negative troponin should not be the sole basis to make a decision.
