During my treadmill it appears I experienced an ischemia abnormal ST depression seen immediate recovery 0.9 slow sIow-upstoping V3, 4.5mm horizontal in V4-V5, and 1.9mm V6->; ST depression seen during exaggerated HTN reading of 246/106 Not sure that makes a lot of sense to me, but in simpler terms, this was evidence the heart was...
