Heart Stress Test (treadmill)?

I know I am in the wrong area, but no one in the heart diseases answered my question so I was wondering if you guys would know something =) :

I am a 13 year old girl, and I might have to take a heart stress test on a treadmill to see if I have arythmia. I told the doctor that every once in a while my heart feels like it flutters, or is in my throat. (only about once a month or so) Also, I have vasovagal syncope so he wanted to check what was making me pass out when I do excercise in hot weather, when I see blood, etc. Do you think that having heart flutters only like once a month can mean arythmia? Also, what will they do during the stress test?


What exactly is arythmia?

Arrhythmia is an irregularity of heart beat. That can be a missed beat, decreased heart beat, increased heart beat or an irregular heart beat.
You probably don't have a real arrhythmia. If you are really worried about it, you can undergo a test called Holter monitor. This is a contraption you wear on you and it monitors your heartbeats for upto one month.
Consult your doctor.
