State of the heart

EKG readout

Apparently my heart is in great shape (per a stress test sandwiched by echocardiograms), but my EKG reads funny. The discussion was something like this:
CARDIOLOGIST: You have an inverted T wave and a depressed ST segment.
ME: Why?
CARDIOLOGIST: Some women do.
ME: So it’s weird but you don’t know why.
CARDIOLOGIST: If you have another EKG and they tell you it’s abnormal, tell them to refer back to this one.
