What Is A Reasonable Length Of Time To Wait Before Getting The Results Of A Nuclear Stress Test?
I was told that a doctor could read the results of a nuclear stress test and determine the findings as soon as the test is completed. The nurse told me it would take at least a week to get the results. Who is correct?
Is It Necessary To Have A Nuclear Stress Test Once A Year Following A Heart Attack?
My husband’s cardiologist wants him to have a nuclear stress test once a year for the rest of his life. He is 53. I have heard that they can be dangerous. Is this really necessary? Is there a better test for the heart?
What Does It Mean If You Did Badly On A Nuclear Stress Test?
The doctor’s office called my husband today. They told him he did badly on his nuclear stress test and that he should see a cardiologist right away. They didn’t explain why, and they just left him hanging. I think it was cruel of them to not to give us more information.
Does this mean he has blockage or a weak heart? Thank you kindly in advance.
