stress test results

I have had bouts of dizzinness & passing out on occasion. i wore a heart monitor overnite & it showed a skip in beat once. i had a stress test with the injection instead of tread mill. i could hardly breathe while being injected. and felt a severe heaviness in my chest & for 2 days after. my family MD. said he was concerned because my heart rate was slow during the procedure & should have read a higher heart rate. So he said he is not sure if I have a heart disease & is putting me on nitro patches until I see him in 2 wks. This is all very concerning to me & I do not no If there is a concern about this whole thing?

Please consider going to an electrophysiologist or at least a cardiologist. These tests seem very unorthodox and to give you a nitro patch and a pat on the back for 2 weeks seems just short of negligent (from your history provided at least). I doubt you have anything wrong but I also doubt your family practioner is giving you the best workup you could have. It's such a specialized field and the family doc has very limited exposure.
