Hi quick background had abnormal traces since 2015 after what they thought I had pulmonary embolism because what my trace said thankfully wasn’t but been under cardiology ever since I have abnormal t waves and st depression , now under new consultant who has been very good had stress test recently results have said theirs a few abnormalities and I have been referred for cardiac MRI can anyone give advice on what abnormalities can be found with stress test I’m very anxious. I’m also under neurology at moment due to papiledema with optic nerve swelling and intracranial pressure they are still getting to the cause of this I am getting a lumbar puncture on Friday (yay me :( )

Thanks in advance

Take care

Thank you so much for your reply and for the information that calms my nerves , I should have mentioned they stopped it at 7 mins as was getting breathless/dizzy and couldn’t do any more but I thought I possibly reached my target or like you said because I had enough I just remember being embarrassed as It was only 7 minutes (29 years old ) but thank you again for taking time to reply :) my mri will be in next few weeks then back to consultant so not to long to wait.

Stay safe 😀

Exactly thank you ! I spoke briefly to my gp today who mentioned the cardiologist wrote in the report that their were also st segment changes during the test but they didn’t progress ? I know I have t wave inversions also unsure if related but will leave to the experts

Thanks 🤩
