Angie, that's great, I'm glad to hear it! Would it therefore be safe to assume you have normal blood pressure(without medication)? No shortness of breath while working out? No fatigue while doing household chores or exercising? Wouldn't these be the type of questions they would ask before ordering a stress test?

Are they ordering tests routinely in every instance so as to make more money off of Medicare? Could this be Medicare fraud? We had a thread on Medicare fraud and I think it was agreed by many that it often involves ordering too many unnecessary tests.

Perhaps you should report it as a possible fraud.
