Hi after a few days in hospital after a really frightening experience in work with chest pain where an ambulance was called I’ve been diagnosed with angina

Hi

Try not to worry too much you’ve got some very clever and caring people looking after you, I went through a similar thing back in October stayed in for a week then went home with stents feeling better than I had for a long time.

Don’t get me wrong it is a bit of an emotional roller coaster but you will get through it with the help of rehab classes and this forum.

Cheers Martin

At the end of 2016 I had chest pain and early 2017 I had an angiogram which revealed I needed a bypass which I eventually had on June 2nd.

So far so good, no more chest pain and off the angina medication.

As already advised, leave it to the experts and hopefully you'll soon be well.
