What Causes Pain In The Chest After A Thallium Stress Test?
I just recently had a thallium cardiac stress test, immediately I felt a squeezing pain on both sides of my neck and some chest pain on the outsides of my chest, but nothing compared to the intense squeezing test on the sides of my neck. The tech told me all ok key fine, but I do not believe this can be normal. I had another test the same day that took picture of my heart, and it cause no pain at all. I had tests done because of episodes of heart rate dropping to 40 and had MVP diagnosed 40 years ago. Please answer

Hi,
It may not be related to thallium test.
Consult a physician and get evaluated. Serial ECG monitoring is required to rule out cardiac causes.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
