Have you spoken with your GP? You also don't mention treatment. Did you have either stents or a bypass? If you had a bypass there could be a breast bone issue. And what meds are you on?

It is worth noting what meds you are on. When I collapsed two weeks before my bypass one of the first questions the paramedics asked was what medication was I on?

Hi Darren51,

I would not consider this to be normal and I would discuss any new symptoms with your GP so that they can decide whether they need to run some tests. If you have not been diagnosed with angina and experience chest pain that does not go away, call 999 immediately.

Take care,

Emily
