[|Human|] My wife is a 65 year old female who just had an EKG and it indicated an abnormality listing posible anterial ischemia.  Unfortunately she is alcohol dependent, roughly 7 or 8 ounces of gin a day.  Could alcohol affect the EKG findings.  What Im looking at on the net is confusing as far as what could be causing this.  Her HDL is 111 and LDL is 90. Any suggestions
[|AI|]  Hereafter going through the details I would like to tell you that first you should not rely on what findings come out printed on an ECG paper as that's just a machine interpretation.& to 8 ounces of alcohol daily is a big amount, and it can lead to cardiac issues like alcohol related cardiomyopathy but not ischemia.It's advisable to consult a cardiologist and get an Echo and a TMT test done for evaluation. Kind Regards
