What Causes Shortness Of Breath After A Stress Test?
I had a stress test done last week, and since then, I have been short of breath. I am having a Ecocariogram tomorrow. Is this a sign of a heart attack coming on, or can I wait until I see the doctor tomorrow? I ve never had a time that I had to keep trying to catch my breath. It started after the treadmill test. Thank you.

Hi,
I think you should go to the ER if you have persistent pain.
An infarction is possible so don't wait anymore.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
