Angina not a heart attack!

In the end, I had to phone 999. In hospital, cardiac & blood pressure higher than should have been. X-ray & blood tests taken. Thinking about doing an angiogram. Tests done for a stroke too. Many hours later put it down to bad angina being stress related. Discharged 17 hours later & now back home resting up!
