My dr. wants to monitor my QT intervals because of a medication I take for neuropathy. My QT/QTC is 358/406 ms and QTcB is 440 ms and QTcF is 411. Does any of this mean my QT intervals are bad and my medication might be causing this? I do have mitral valve prolapse but no problems with it. Also it says QRS dur is 103 ms, vent rate 90bpm, PR int 156ms, PRT axes 70 76 39, avg RR is 660 ms.

You didn't mention the name of the medication? A prolonged QTc is worrisome when greater than 500ms, so yours looks okay based on the above. It's helpful to know what your prior ECG was to see if there is a trend. Hope this helps.

Long QT is a very dangerous condition, you better do as the Dr. wants.
