The TG for this Test is your Combat Step TG.
When you would recieve damage that would reduce your HP, after applying all modifications to the total damage, do not reduce your HP.

If an effect would restore your HP, you may choose to either have it restore your HP or to reduce the total of your current delayed damage (you may split the total HP restored between both options).
