Stress test

rivermom · 02-01-2007, 11:49 AM

Keep us posted on how the doctor visit goes. Don't worry yourself ~ It sounds like you've just over done it on the tread machine. I've felt that way myself a time or two when I've over done it. I knew better and should have done my sessions shorter. Maybe for now you should skip the tread machine and just do light exercizes like walking or something. Don't forget the H2o.

Will be thinking of you and will be checking back next week to see how your visit went.

Thanks girls!! I won't get crazy, I will let you know how it goes on Monday

My prayers are with you Gina.

I've had a stress test. What they do is to hook you up with wires to do an EKG while you're on a treadmill. They start you out slow, and monitor you as you speed up and make the incline steeper. If they see any irregularities or you seem too "out of breath" they will end the test right away.

When I had mine, there were 2 people in the room with me; a technician and a cardiac nurse. They're very careful not to push you harder than you can safely endure.

Some have blood pressure drops when on their feet for a long period. This can make you light headed. I hope that's all it is.

Gina, when is your stress test scheduled for?

I'm still praying that your results are good!

She posted she needed the stress test on the Monday following her post which was 1/31/07 so I'm thinking she will have the test tomorrow on the 5th.

Gina, please let us know about your test. We have you in our prayers!!
