Has anyone did EKC/ECG treadmill test?
Post Body

Hey there! Hope you are well, whoever is reading my post. So today morning, I went for my EKG/ ECG treadmill test. At first I was ok & even I was feeling a bit anxious but I was still feeling ok, calm even before everything starts. Until it was my turn to do the test, first it was walking while the treadmill go up for 3 mins I manage to finish that stage until it was the second one which is like brisk walk/half walk half running type & suddenly I felt the adrenaline rush like something bad is gonna happen that i need to stop tell them to stop. So I guess I had an attack & asked the doctors to stop as I feel too anxious. When they sat me down I was breathing fast, heart rate up which of course cause I was on treadmill but when few mins past I was still having heart rate up & I can hear the nurse saying behind me that my heart rate is fast even when I'm already at rest but I was just so anxious & kept looking at the heart rate monitor. Like there's no way I can calm myself down or do grounding to help me calm down. So finally I asked them if I should go again that's when I doctor talked to me & asked if I'm feeling anything or any chest pain. I told them no but I'm just feeling very scared, anxious. They asked why, & I said that I'm worried about the test result & everything. They explained me what the test was for & reassured me that it seems that I am fine, young & sees nothing wrong but the test does show that something is wrong. They didn't let me do the test again & asked me to wait for someone to call me regarding my result & if there is any follow up that needed. After I left, I felt so scared that something bad might happen to me during my way home. But I still push myself to get myself home without stopping at places. When I manage to get to where I live, when I was walking all I can think how worried I am if they do want to get another test & that they (other doctors not the ones who handle me) believe my test result rather what I'm going through.

So now I want to ask if anyone of you experienced this when you did your EKG/ ECG treadmill test or even maybe running exercises? & what do you do whenever you feel the rush of adrenaline of you feeling scared? Even felt like my legs are getting weak or something but it isn't.. really appreciate anyone who comment & tell me their experiences or any advice/ suggestion if you have any. Thanks for reading my post!
