ok, so I  had my stress test the one where you have to walk on the tredmill and I am not too sure on how I did
 Anyway, How much impact does the stress test have on the decision of whether or not they will do the operation, even if every other test are fine, does anyone know.

Thanks

I had a stress test as well due to have a murmur, which I was very nervous about, but Thank God everything was ok, so unless you have a serious problem with your heart, its a breeze.

Good Luck...

 Good Morning and happy Memorial Day Weekend!

I am having my surgery on June 10th. I had my stress echo on the treadmill and they found a small mumur. I also have high blood preasure. I still got the ok for the surgery. From what I understand they get your pulse up to about 135 to see how your heart will do under stress. If you got your heart rate up and they didn't find anything you should be good to go from the cardio end.

Hope this helps.
