Nuclear Stress Test-Terrified

I’ll clarify all tests I’ve had.
I’ve had 3-4 regular stress tests on a treadmill.
I’ve had a nuclear stress test on a treadmill.
I’ve had an angiogram.
I’ve had Echocardiograms.
I just had a coronary artery calcium CT Scan.
And because my score was very high, my cardiologist wants me to have a nuclear stress test.
It’s called this because of the medicine they’ll inject to stress my heart (like what happens on a treadmill).
So if all looks good, I’m good for now.
If not, I’ll have an angiogram.
Thank you for the information.

Wow you are really getting tested!

I don't think you could do anymore tests you have had all types.

Did you ever have a Holter monitor test to see how your heart's electrical system is working? An ECG is usually only a minute or so and does not give a good history of what your heart electrical system is working just a real time at that moment.
