Sorry Caney Girl that I didn't see your post sooner.

I had a chemical stress test but they used adneosene on me and it made me feel like I was going to pass out but I didn't. It was a no brainer and easy test. They found no issues with mine.
I hope your's was as easy and that the outcome was positive

I had one a few weeks ago. I saw the chemical as causing hot flashes and a sick sinking feeling but it was just a few seconds and it passed.

No big deal, as soon as they started the adneosene on me I felt like I had been running, my heart rate jumped up, I was breathing heavy and my face got flushed. It was only for a minute or two and as soon as they stop the drip all the feelings stop IMMEDIATELY. I too am prone ot plapitations and it had no affect on them at all. I bet you'll do great.

So how did your test go?

Good Luck.
