Normal stress EKG practically excludes Coronary Artery Disease... You have to be investigated for disorders of heart rate or rhythm / underlying asymptomatic Cardiomyopathy / change of electrolytes from the food supplements and so on HOLTER (24 to 48 hour ambulatory monitoring) / ECHOcardiogram / LABORATORY work-up – may all be necessary for further assessment and assistance. The treating doctor may suggest them depending on need, based on his assessment of the situation. Be in touch with your doctor - it is a question of time and you will be well
Take care Wishing speedy recovery God bless Good luck
