Dear Mrs Agca
Decision for any stress test is based upon a thorough evaluation of patient's profile,symptoms and investigation reports. It is not clear from your query that why were you advised stress test. If you can mention that, I will be able to throw more light on this.
Once a patient has high blood pressure prior to test, he/she becomes temporary unfit for test, so doctor will evaluate this aspect.
