General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Does she have any pain?
Stress test positive may be due to many reasons like fluctuating BP, abnormal electrolytes, cardiac reasons etc.
So I suggest you to do rest ECG and electrolyte test and consult a physician.
Mean while can take T.Paracetamol TDS (thrice daily after food) for 3 days with hot compression.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
