After putting on a gown and getting all the electrodes and belt attached to me, I was able to update Dr. D. on how I&#8217;ve been doing lately and ask him some of my questions. However, this visit was mostly for the stress test, so I didn&#8217;t have the chance to ask <em>all<\/em> the questions on my annoying long list-next time! I described my chest pain and he said it doesn&#8217;t sound like a dangerous type, so that&#8217;s good. I also told him about the fatigue I&#8217;m still having. He said if it lingers for another month or so and my heart is operating fine (based on the next echo), the he&#8217;ll look into other possible explanations. It could be that my heart is still healing.<\/p>\n<p>So the stress test was rather uneventful. Most of it was walking and only the last two or three minutes was actually running at an incline. I don&#8217;t feel like it actually &#8220;stressed&#8221; me all that much. I definitely work out harder during my runs. Dr. D. reviewed the ECG strips and said I did well- yay! He&#8217;d like me to have another echo in a month and then go over the results, so I&#8217;ll be able to ask all my questions at that time.<\/p>\n<p>Now I&#8217;ll continue getting back into my running regime, and not have to worry about how my heart is handling the stress.
