Is It Normal To Pass Out While Undergoing A Stress Test?

my grandmother was just told she has a moderate leaking heart. they gave her some more BP meds and told her not to worry about it. Even though when she took a stress test she almost passed out on the treadmill. She was told she is fine. Is this normal?
