Shall I stop these pills prior to echo, treadmill tests

Hi, I'm scheduled for echo and the treadmill next week. I'm taking progesterone, estrogen, levothyroxine, hidrocortisone daily.  If I continue taking my meds, will it effect the tests.   If I need to stop taking the pills, how many days prior the test.  This is my first for these tests. Thank you.

Hello.  There is no need to stop any of those pills prior to either of those tests you mentioned.

Good luck.
