Bruce Protocol Stress Test and Betablockers
 
Having been doing these tests every 6 months for last 25yrs I have had my medication increased which now makes it virtually impossible to satisfy 9 minutes on the Treadmill. Do all countries require the 9 mins with medication?

In place of the 9 minutes on the treadmill they'll let you do other tests such as a drug induced stress test - although careful, if that's possible, the consultants who do the echocardiographs can get it way wrong and then your into another universe of problems.
