Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Your stress test is positive for inducible ischemia.
This means that your heart is not getting enough blood when you are exerting.
Most common cause for this is coronary artery obstruction.
So you should definitely consult cardiologist and get done Coronary angiography to rule out coronary artery blockade.
If blockage is there then you will need angioplasty with stenting to open the blocked artery and restoration of blood supply.
So next step in your case is cardiologist consultation and angiography to rule out coronary artery blockade.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
