What Is The Effect On Stress Echo After Having Caffeine?
I have an appt to have a stress echo in 2 hrs. I didn't read over the instructions recently and forgot to eliminate caffeine. I drank about 8-10oz of coffee this am before realizing I shouldn't have. Do you think they will still do the test? (I will have an extremely hard time rescheduling because I work full time at a brand new job.)
