Angina in small arteries

[BusaMags]

Hi all. Had my angiogram yesterday (lots of nerves for no reason) I found out all large arteries clear 👏👏👏 but cardiologist believe that my small one are blocked. 👎👎👎She explained there are no tests that can be done to find out as they are to small. Has anyone got this type of Angina? Next test booked for echocardiogram on 22nd.

I have a small artery that is blocked they said it is too small and in a tricky place so a stent would be no good. I now have angina and struggling with medication

Hi. I'm sorry to hear that. So far medication as made little difference to me but it's been increased so I shall see. I'm just going to find out as much as I can about it all and take each day as it comes. Take care x

[Picass in reply to BusaMags]

What medication are you taking

[BusaMags in reply to Picass]

Isosorbide atorvastatin Asprin and spray when needed if I have an attack but only used twice x

[Picass in reply to BusaMags]

Do you have any side effects from the isosorbide

[BusaMags in reply to Picass]

So far I've had non. Don't even realize I'm taking them. X

[Picass in reply to BusaMags]

Your luckyI am getting terrible headaches with them

[BusaMags in reply to Picass]

I get that if I have to use my ntg spray. So carry paracetamol with me and take it 30 second after the spray xx

I would be interested to know how often you get your angina attacks and when do they occur ?

[BusaMags in reply to 70garden]

Hi. I only get them when I am walking fast or walking on an incline so it's on excersion only. My heart rate rises quite a bit just walking up stairs so I tend to do everything thing slowly. X
