Any Suggestion For Having Borderline Ischemia In Stress Test On Treadmill?

I had a stress test on a treadmill that was borderline for ischemia. The cardiologist suggested a cardiac catheterization, but said he was doing it only for my piece of mind, because he didn't think it would show anything, so I didn't have it done. I don't know what I should be doing?

Hi,

If you didn't undergo angiography, then I would recommend you
1. follow healthy lifestyle, don't eat junk food, lose weight if you are overweight, exercise regularly
2. keep cholesterol levels low
3. monitor your blood pressure

Take care
