Brief Answer:
You need further test to confirm the diagnosis

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have studied your case and I think that you are having heart issues. We can not comment just on the basis of ECG.This report is suggestive of heart ischemia. If you can get a 2 D echo than it will confirm any abnormality.

For lung function you need to do yoga to increase your lung capacity. Also swimming can help you. This will also decrease body fat.

I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.

Thanks
