Stress test fine but CT scan of Aorta ordered
hi there.
Today i went for a stress test on my heart. Everything looked good according to the Dr. He did however say they saw something to do with my aorta and it may be a glitch but they need to make sure.
He has ordered me to get a CT scan in the coming weeks.
Should I be worried?
Would he be moving things along faster if it was serious? Can they tell if it is serious by looking at the stress test results?
