Poor R wave progression could be due to lead placement or a prior cardiac event-like a heart attack. Non-specific T-wave abnormalities means the t-waves don’t look perfect and it could also be due to lead placement when the EKG was obtained. These findings are very non-specific and do not mean you were having a heart attack at the time it was obtained. If these pains continue, see a cardiologist.
