Hi. Your ecg is suggestive of changes in inferior leads which are either ischemic or repolarisation changes. In the presence of increased cholesterol and sleep apnea, u should once see cardiologist for echocardiography. Echo will detect regional wall motion abnormality that is suggestive of coronary artery disease. U should take treatment for all disease u have. Take care.
