Nuclear stress test result
After going to ER with chest discomfort, they let me go diagnosing me with stress and anxiety.(my mom is very ill in another state). However, my family doctor ordered a nuclear stress test with Lexicon. I've had 2 in previous years, which ALONG with previous EKG's, have always shown same abnormality. THIS TIME, my results were told to me as "intermittent". What does this mean? I'm a 54 year old female, with chronic back pain due to a disabling car wreck 20 years ago. My doctor has now set me up with a cardiologist. I have one in my home state, and had this same test 2 years ago which was negative.
