Johnson,

Welcome to NeuroTalk.

I don't think you will have a problem doing the treadmill stress EKG. There will be a cardiac nurse right next to you to watch you. The test may give you a head ache but you can ask for something to bring your BP down if the head ache lasts or becomes unbearable.

I have done two EKG's laying down and two stress EKG's after suffering a concussion with no problem. I know my heart is in good shape.

It will be worth it to rule out any heart issues.


My best to you.
