Should An Anterior/inferior MI At Some Point In EKG Worry Us ?
My mother went to see her Cardiologist today and was told that her EKG showed she had an anterior/inferior MI at some point. At first, he told her he thought there was a problem with the machine and ordered a stress test. However, after coming home, we realized she had gone to the ER with chest pain but upon drinking a regular Coca-Cola she was able to belch and felt immediate relief and left. This is the same way that my Grandfather described feeling back in 1997 when he actually did have an anterior/inferior MI. Should we be concerned or believe more along the lines of machine malfunction??

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
The history of chest pain is there, the EKG shows some changes, then in my opinion better to go for coronary angiography test, this will clear the picture what ever it may be, have nice day,
