Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Shadow Behind The Heart In Stress Test?
My husband went for a stress test and the Dr. phoned back said there was a shadow behind his heart. His blood pressure has been running a little higher then usual, he has three stents now but has never had a heart attach, Dr said he might have to have a cath later and is sending him new medication, what does all of this mean.
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that he just meant to manage her blood pressure as for now and keep a follow up with your cardiologist. Being a CAD patient hypertension can cause complications.
Hopefully this information will guide you properly.
Kind Regards Dr Bhanu Partap
