A high pulse rate can be caused by many factors including lifestyle, emotional and psychological triggers, certain medicines, heart conditions, heart rhythm problems or other medical conditions. The ETT is used to see how your heart works when you are more active. If you are experiencing a high pulse rate as well as other symptoms including chest pain, breathlessness or high blood pressure, then you should see your GP to discuss your symptoms and their possible causes. It may then be decided that you need further investigations. For more information please call the Advice line nurses on 0808 801 0899.
Thank you for accessing our CHSS UA-cam resources. With regards to your question: Cholesterol levels are based on LDL & HDL levels. I wonder (but you do not say) if the figure you have provided is a total cholesterol level based on both these figures. I would recommend that you discuss your results with your health care professional and/or the person who provided you with these results. Meanwhile please find attached a link to NHS online that gives you more information on cholesterol levels and advice on lowering your cholesterol should you need to: www.nhs.uk/conditions/high-cholesterol/ also a link to a CHSS leaflet that will give you more information and advice on Cholesterol: www.chss.org.uk/documents/2013/08/e1_essential_guide_cholesterol_pdf.pdf Please be advised that the link and the attached leaflet are based on how cholesterol is tested, results are reported & high cholesterol is treated in the UK. If you live outwith the UK cholesterol results may be reported differently and treatment options may also differ.

It sounds like there are few issues that you may wish further information around blood pressure, discomfort symptoms, cholesterol and managing anxiety. It would be useful to discuss these further. If you are from Scotland please feel free to contact us on our Adviceline on 0808 801 0899 And we also have information available on our website related to the above concerns. In the meantime if you have concerns you could make a further appointment with your GP to discuss. It may be useful to keep a symptom diary to share with your clinician and discuss any health concerns you may have and crucially how you can manage them effectively.
ETT is to help reach a conclusion about the cause of chest pain, not to determine the presence of coronary heart disease (CAD). It is therefore possible to still have angina if an ETT is “normal” and a doctor would then consider other test/investigations to conclude a diagnosis. A normal ETT result would indicate you do not have significant CAD, but you could still have angina/heat attack if a smaller blockage exists. Your doctor may want to do further testing if you have other risk factors for heart disease or symptoms indicative of angina.
Thank you for your enquiry. With regards to the timings of an exercise tolerance test. Each level takes/lasts 3 minutes. As you go through each level on the treadmill it becomes steeper and faster. You are asked at each level to say if you have symptoms or need to stop. If you tolerate the whole process it will take around 30 minutes to complete the exercise tolerance test. This includes setting up, performing the test and a cooling down period. I hope that this information is helpful
Should I even bother going to my exercise tolerance test. I don't get the symptoms when I exercise. Also I think they are related to my gallstones.

Can you still have angina even if your stress test is cleared

It is therefore possible to still have angina if an ETT is “normal” and a doctor would then consider other test/investigations to conclude a diagnosis.
