Steve I've had a stress test a few years back -- not as bad as you think it will be. They hook you up to alot of machines and have you walk on a treadmill until you are about to "drop dead" Really intensive tests will have them inject a die that shows all the arteries and "stuff" that your blood travels along.
I had indigestion so bad a few years ago my doctor sent me to get tested... I was going to mention this might be your problem as well. I got ALL the typical heart attack symptoms with worst case indigestion. I was scared to death for a long time... that is one reason why I started walking every day.
Good luck and let us know how it goes

Oh - or instead of the treadmill you could ride WITH me for a lap or two at NH Seeing that BIG wall in front of you coming out of turn 2 at 65 mph should get your heart rate up
Actually I don't know if non instructors are allowed to have passengers

The prostate exam IS the stress test.
Steve, just wait till the doc start promoting the OTHER test. My doc said I wouldn't remember anything. LIAR!. I felt way too much and when I opened my eyes, I got some DEEP personal insights on the monitor.
Had a follow up with the gastroenterologist who did the exam. He walks into the room and greets me. Then looks at the pictures in my chart and says, "Oh, you're that guy. I'm not too good with faces." When I told him about hte discomfort, he asked if I'd wanted to reach around and rip his throat out and since I hadn't, he said he guessed it wasn't too bad an experience.
At least he didn't say he didn't know how to quit me.

ahh stress test.
they exercise you till they hit a targeted heart rate....
or you fall over clutching your chest.
I thought my damn legs were gonna fall off the first time.
you bring up a good point about the other parts of the exam...
as i was driving home from my last exam i thought about the fact the different genders have specific keywords.. such as "slide down" and " now bend over and relax".
I'll leave it to the interested student to figure out which belongs to whom.
as my dad used to say "never trust a proctologist with both hands on your shoulders. "

Show up in your jogging suit and sneakers. He'll know you're in good shape that way.
Rick's been a couple of times. He passed.
You will get wired up and do a bit of heavy breathing, but they won't let you drop dead. If the test is going badly, they'll stop it, and if necessary, they know how to call 911.
Oh, glad the other test went OK too.
