I am scheduled for a Nuclear Stress Test because I can't do the treadmill and was recently told I have a blood clot in the back of my brain. Doc said it "was old" and not related to recent ER visit for left side numbness. But wondering if it's safe to go thru this test with this clot? Heart is going into AFib/AFlutter way to often do diagnostic test seems necessary. Anyone else have issues from a Nuclear Stress Test?
I have AFIB electrical part of the heart
It’s the most common heart diagnosis today and and is successfully treated through different processes that decision of course is between u and your medical team I developed AFIB after my heartattack and it became a chronic condition it took about a year to stablize that was five years ago and it’s still in a stable place prayers for your peace of mind and healing
I have had two nuclear stress test because I couldn’t due treadmill it sounds scary the machine is big it takes a little time both medical teams who did mine were wonderful if u have questions ASK I went to see equipment before I took it and it helped me it sounds like u have had quite a a hard journey prayers and positive thoughts in the better days to come
Thank you. Did it yesterday and results say the plumbing of my heart is good. So now it's about the electrical aspect. One down, one more to go.
