What's the chance of a exercise stress test, echocardiogram, and two 24 hour Holter monitors missing severe CAD? I'm 35 and I swear I have CAD, but heart Doctor saying no heart disease.

Have you seen a specialist cardiologist, if they say you don't have any kind of cardiac issues why don't you believe them.
?Huband has heart failure or dialated cardiomyopathy, wow you should see his echocardiogram, not pretty, even when I first saw the echo I could identify he had some serious problems, therefore echo's are very good as I understand it in picking up heart issues, it also picked up as blood flow within his heart, some of the valves were not that flash either.
?Interesting what it did not pick up was that did he have clogged arteries, advice from private cardiologist that he have angiogram and stent if needed ASAP, as that could have been the cause of his cardiomyopathy, when he did a couple of days later they found he had NO blocked arteries, apparently falls into a small group of the population about 2% that does not have clogged arteries, his sibling sister also has heart issues and has the same blessing/curse, interesting that they both have heart issues though only explanation we have is its genetic.
?If you did have clogged arteries my understanding is you would have trouble with the exercise stress test and you ECG would be showing signs.
Dr's fascinated and tell us they see so few like you, and when we ask are you interested for research purposes, not interested, why because drug companies fund most medical research and why would they be interested in finding the cure for everybody with clogged arteries, drugs are making them a fortune.
