Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Our heart rate increases with exercise. This is normal for every one.
Depending on persons height, weight, target heart rate (THR) is decided by TMT machine.
If we achieve THR without getting breathless or rising BP or abnormal ECG then out TMT is good.
But if we fail to achieve THR due to breathlessness or accelerated hypertension or ecg changes means our TMT is not good and we need angiography to rule out coronary artery disease (CAD).
Since your TMT was stopped due to breathlessness and hence THR was not achieved, possibility of CAD is more in your case.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
