Hi There
After going through your query I understand your concern.
I would like to tell you that treadmill test is done to check if there is any abnormality in heart rhythm during exertion . If there are changes in ST-T segment that is indicative of inducible ischemia.
If your test shows some abnormal changes then should get a further evaluation done. It's recommend for you to consult with a cardiologist and get an angiography done.
Kind Regards
