Adenosine stress test?
My primary physician has referred me for an adenosine stress test because of extensive family history of heart disease. Doing a bit of research on the internet, it looks like the adenosine stress test is used for people who can't walk on a treadmill or otherwise exercise. I'm not in good shape, overweight, but I'm mobile. I ride the exercise bike once in a while and walk a couple blocks every day. I spent two hours raking leaves this weekend. I certainly wouldn't peg myself as unable to exercise. Is there any other reason why an adenosine stress test would be more effective than an exercise stress test?

I got the impression that drug-induced stress tests were only used if they have to... I would ask your doctor why he or she doesn't want a regular stress test. Maybe there is a reason? You'll never know till you ask.
