A member asked:
What do you suggest if my test was positive for stress induced ischemia in the anteroseptal wall , what that means have i every had an heart attack before?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ischemia with stress: Hi. Without seeing the test done or the report, we can't say whether or not you've had a heart attack before. At the least, when you exercise and heart muscle oxygen demand goes up, not enough oxygen gets to the anterior wall and the septum to meet the demand. You need coronary angiography, and may need a stent or a bypass operation; you'll need medical therapy in any event. Ask your cardiologist
