Two weeks ago I went in for (radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging) because I've been having regular heart pains from going to the gym for the last few months. Made it through the test and I was waiting to hear back with the results. I didn't hear back from the doctor instead I was sent another appointment date for....Radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging ( only a scan) appointment was made quite quickly. Just wondering if they found something in the first scan I am a bit worried especially because I can't get a hold of anybody doctors here in Finland....quite busy times for them.
For the record I had a heart attack back in 2022 with one stent fitted.
Sorry for ranting I'm probably just worrying about nothing and thank you for listening!

Could be the imaging quality on the first one was crap. Just have to wait and see what the second one says. Not doom and gloom just yet. Whatvever the reason they clearly don't feel they have enough information to form a diagnosis otherwise this would have been communicated to you.
With the myocardial perfusion scan you can frequently have two, stress and rest. Mine were 1 week apart, stress first and rest the next week.Took 6 months to obtain the results, still not sure they have told me all the findings, the info I was given consisted only of my ejection fraction in both tests.
