Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
     
I would like to tell you that stress test is done to know if you have coronary heart disease. As you said positive stress test for induced myocardial ischemia, which means you are at the risk of coronary heart disease. High exertion for you can lead to a heart attack.

It is advisable for you to get your angiography done it will help you in deciding the line of treatment. Personally consult your cardiologist and plan for angiography.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Navneet Mahajn
