I had a Nuclear Stress test last week for ongoing heart problems. I am bradycardic and the injection given to speed up my heart only managed to get to 73bpm and I had horrendous chest and left arm pain. My heart rate has been down to 38 in the last few weeks and I get dizzy, chest pain and palpitations when walking. What were others reactions during this test?

I've never heard of this type of test. I hope everything turns out alright for you.

My mother had this test several times. We joked that they call it a stress test because the thought of it alone makes you feel stressed!
Her symptoms were similar to yours. I don't know the heart rate but the chest pain, palpitations and dizziness were common.
I wish you the best if luck with everything.
