Stress Test: For this test you will not have to run or walk on the treadmill. They will give you medicine to elevate your heart rate. The machine they will use to take pictures of your heart is wide open and will not enclose you. I have had this test myself several times . If you are really nervous your doctor can give you a medicine to relax you before the test. You will do great.
