I fell like there is an anvil of doom wating to drop on me..

Stress Test Results: "There is a moderately severe and moderately extensive anterior defect in the stress images. in addition, stress images demonstrate moderately severe and moderately extensive inferior defect".
Rest images demonstrate apparent reversibility in both anterior and inferior defect. Gated tomographic images with the patient at rest demonstrate hyperdynamic left vetricular wall motion and wall thickening. LVEJ is >75%.
Impression:
Equivocal study. thre are apperntly reversible anterior and inferior defects which may be due ot either excedrcise induced myocardial ischemia. however in view of paptien motion in the stress images possiblilty of artifacts should be considered. correlation with partners CT angiography may be helpful. Left ventricular function is hyperdymanic LVEF is >75%.
Went to the cardiologist and I am scheduled for an angiogram in 14 days.  I am afraid to move....should I be?
