Can Metal Jewelry Be Worn While Going For An Echocardiogram Test?
I have a stress echo, regular and treadmills test in the morning. I just recently got my clit, nipples, and my eyebrow pierced. I also just got my belly button pierced but I have a plastic belly button barbell. The rest are metal. The clit and nipples have rings. The eyebrow has a barbell. Can I wear them during this test? I don t want them to close up. It cost alot of money to get them done.

You are supposed to remove all the metal jewelry from your body during treadmill test and echocardiogram test. Your doctor may not agree with wearing them.
