Yes your values seem to be fine. High heart rate makes qt to prolong slightly. I need to see all your ECG for any further advice

Hi. As your doctor told when heart rate is high qt interval is difficult to measure exactly. Dont worry and repeat ecg once heart rate is below 100. Do echocardiogram as a basic investigation to rule out any structural problems.
