A member asked:
Very good evening doctors. can being very nervous and concerned affect a nuclear stress test, and cause you to need stents or bypass surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Will be very direct: NO WAY does nervousness and anxiety cause vascular stenosis or closure and eventuate in the need for cardiac stents and/ or CABG surgery. But, find some counseling support either psychology or clergy, and handle your fears. Quality of life can be enhanced, so become proactive.
