I'm experiencing some palpitations over the past few days, so I decided to get an ECG done. It showed a slight elevation in v4 and v5. Could you check things over for me? My echo came back as normal.

The presence of slight ST elevation in V4 and V5 on an ECG can sometimes indicate issues such as early repolarization or, in more serious cases, ischemia or myocardial infarction. Given your palpitations and the ECG findings, it's important to follow up with a cardiologist, even if your echocardiogram (echo) is normal. The echo provides information on the structure and function of the heart, but the ECG findings and your symptoms warrant further evaluation to rule out any acute or chronic cardiac conditions.
