Heart Disease Symptoms

[smithy]

Hi Folks.

I'm a long term CAD suffere and havee had multiple stents and a Quad CABG. Everything has been ok since the CABG until recently i have started getting a 'numbness/pins and needles feeling in my shoulder blade and some mild chest pain.

Has anyone ever had this feeling in their back/shoulder blade and was it associated with heart disease or classed as one of the Angina symptoms.

Thanks in Advance

I got a sudden and severe pain in the shoulder blade and it turned out to be a trapped nerve. Nobody here can really diagnose what the issue is. In the first instance I would ring "111". If they feel it is serious they will arrange paramedics and if no probably suggest you contact your GP in the morning.

Hi,

How long ago did you have the CABG?
