My doctor "thinks" I may have heart blockage & I am scheduled for a stress test using dye in my veins while I am "walking" and when I am not. To me, I have no symptoms--I went to him because I was having some trouble breathing, no pain, no heaviness in chest. It was more like I had a slight case of pneumonia. The day before I was to take the test, I slipped and cracked a couple of ribs. Now, there is no difficulty in breathing so I am considering canceling test. It would seem to me, if you have any type of heart blockage it would be difficult to breathe all the time. It's been a month or more and there are no other signs. Family want me to go ahead and take test--I don't want to. Any thoughts/opinions?
