stress-test

Avatar n tn I went over 17 minutes and no irregular beats or odd occurrences happened during the test. However, though my stress test was clean, an ECG test performed at the ER the night before the visit with the cardiologist verified that I am, in fact, having irregular heartbeats. All that said, throughout this week, I've had an increasing amount of difficulty with trying to breathe. My breathing feels heavy, especially after a meal and/or while sitting.
Avatar f tn Hiya all. I work with adults who have learning difficultiea and sometimes present challenging behaviour. At the weekend a gentlemen who I support threatened me, grabbed me by both wrists and attempted to punch me in the stomach, later that evening I ebded up in A and E with chest pains and shortness of breath and my blood pressure was extremly high. Does anyone know the next step to take with my employer regarding my situation?? I want to go off sick but cant really afford to.
Avatar m tn As you know, other than for cold sores, you are not at risk for any STD from kissing. As far as HSV-1 infection and risk is concerned, again your risk is tiny. While about 60% of adults have HSV (most of whom are unaware that they have the infection), in the absence of observed lesions transmission occurs no more than 1 in every 10,000 exposures and probably less. Thus: 1. Unless you have already been tested there is a better than 50/50 chance that you already have HSV-1.
Avatar m tn The EBV test was probably an EBV panel, which would have included the IgM result. If your IgM was positive, then that means you have a current infection. You will have to call your physician to find out whether or not your IgM result was positive. In the meantime... lots of fluids, sleep and rest.
Avatar f tn I know that stress isn't good for you at anytime but does anyone know how it effects your pregnancy? My child's father recently inform me that he never wants to see me or talk to me again. Personally I don't care but I'm losing sleep over how mt daughter will beaffected by this. I can't imagine life without my dad. And I'm thinking about the horror stories of females with daddy issues. That has me stressed, how much harm am I doing to my daughter if anyone knows?
Avatar m tn t remember the name of the test except it may be something like .... C-26(?) I am going to have the test re-done. I have had a Pap Smear, Mammogram, Cat Scan of my chest and belly, and another Colonoscopy which showed no sign of cancer. My doctor told me if the blood test is hight again then he wants me to have a full body Cat Scan. I am very confused about this whole process. Can anyone shed some light on this for me. Thank you so very much. Blessings.
Avatar f tn t know what it was and by the time I went to see the dr it was already gone. When they ran all the tests (EKG, Echo, Stress Test and 24 hr Holter monitor) I passed them all. After passing all the test it gave me a peace of mind and I kinda forgot about it. I started training for a half marathon in Feb 2014. In mid March I experienced another episode but didn't go see the dr. I ran the half Marathon on April 6th. On April 16th I experience another episode but this time it did not go away.
Avatar n tn I can produce a numbert of different opinions what is the appropriate heart rate and so on with exercising. The best method for someone with a heart issue is to have a stress test. A stress test is oftened done for the purpose of learning the degree of tolerance/risk one can safely do. The rule of thumb stated is not recommended for someone who has heart issues. You will be safe to engage in exercising according to METs.
Avatar m tn and one other thing if there was something wrong with my heart would it have shown during the stress test?
Avatar n tn Had a nuclear treadmill stress test done while taking the test the whole time the nurse held me up from behind 2 hands on back because i stated i had back problems and as soon as test started she began this procere is this comman practice?
Avatar n tn thankyou for responding, yes had the test reached my target heart rate , but didnt feel like i had exerted myself enough to give my heart a real test, thankfully nothing showed, but wish i had some answers to the chest pain that goes down my left arm, and cardioligist says its nothing, well its not nothing its very disturbing actually put me on lipitor as bad cholestrol is 7 oh well if i cark it least i know nothing was wrong..
Avatar n tn My doctor has ordered a non stress test for me if I go over my due date. I think they just want to make sure that the baby is doing well because the placenta starts to age at the end of pregnancy so they monitor the baby's heart rate for a bit to make sure the baby is getting enough nutrients and oxygen, I think it's routine.
1822306 tn?1330522629 I have had all bloodwork, sonogram, and biopsy. The nurse forgot to make an apt last month for a stress test the Hepa ordered so now it will be another month before the Cardiologist can see me. My question is: Does everyone have a stress test before starting treatment? I am 56 and in good health, weight, and somewhat athletic. Is a stress test necessary? I am Genotype 2b; I only have to do six months SOC and was hoping to finish treatment before summer.
Avatar f tn Do they do stress test for everyone? If so when do they do it?
Avatar n tn I have had two sets of chest xrays done and they show nothing as well. I went in for a stress test and it appeared to be "abnormal". I went in for an angiogram and the doctor assures me that my heart is in excellent shape except for a very small blockage. I continue to have the tightness in my chest and the feeling of being flush. I have a blood pressure of 100 over 60 and a pulse of 72. I have had no other problems in the past. I am at a loss as to where to go next.
212161 tn?1599427282 If so, they can give you something for your anxiety. I had the treadmill stress test and I was able to take a xanax. If it's the other one that's a medicine induced stress test where you lay on a table, then I'm not sure. Is your Dr. wanting you to get this test done? Has the chest pain went away since you started using your inhaler? You know anxiety can give alot of us shortness of breath and chest pains.
Avatar f tn Anyone know?
Avatar f tn I have a stress test today they put me stripes in my belly to monitor the babys heart rate. They did it for 20 minutes and they said everything looks good they said if they see something weird you can be there for up to 2 hours.
Avatar f tn There is a non stress test AND a stress test.... There are different reasons for both. During a non stress test they hook you up to a monitor and just keep an eye on baby's movements and heart rate... During a stress test they hook you up to a monitor but they induce contractions to see how baby reacts.
