Effective preiod of treadmill test

by Gab26, Dec 30, 2007 10:07PM

I had a treadmill test done about 2 years ago and everything turned out to be fine. I like to know how effective is this test result and should I do another test if I have a chest pain again recently? This chest pain system is more like muscle pain like I used to have after straining my muscle, which was the same systom I had before which lead me to do the last treadmill test.

There really is no set timeline that a stress test is good for, it depends on your symptoms, if they change or come back you should see your doctor and let them decide if another stress test is warrented.

Good Luck,

Jon
