Hello Les in view of your recent history of heart attack you need to have your latest symptoms checked out immediately. It may be side effects from your drugs but may well be heart related again. Call 999 don't worry about bothering people they will be happy to check you out. Good luck and let us know how you get on

Arms and fingers still have pins and needles. But got checked out . Said it was due to heart not pumping enough blood round. Have had a very traumatic time . Every thing needs to settle down. But if still there this time next week to go back to a+e .. Or if it gets worse come strait back up . But it has eased a bit. So let's wait and see
