Query about ct angio

When I was 19 i started suffering severe chest pain radiating to left arm, dizziness, fast heart rate... doc that time said that in young age coronary artery anamolies can cause these symptoms. So i had ct coronary angio. It was normal except a minor finding- some artery was small in calibre.. now the problem is when they injected me with the contrast, I started feeling very hot and my heart rate raised significantly.. it was around 105 when they did the test.. I want to know if this could impact my test results? I showed the images to radiologist also who said that the images were little bit poor quality, but he can diagnose and check them easily. This test needs to be repeater after 10 years so need clarity
