I’ve still got questions to ask so sorry if I’m being a pain but there’s not much information regarding micro vascular angina and coronary artery spasms.
I don’t know while being active I have breathlessness and achy chest and going down my arms, but why does it seem to come back or the symptoms return later on the same day or the next and following days.
Is it exhaustion and it’s a way of your body telling you to test ?
You’re not a pain for sure. I really wish I could help and some others may. But if I had your symptoms I would be on the phone to your GP.
Please be safe take care
That’s so kind, now I have a wobbly chin, thank you 😊
Oh no! Not the wobbly chin syndrome! You make me laugh.....so a big thank you.
But seriously. I do know what you are talking about. Some days I feel fit as a fiddle, do lots...make bread, have a walk, exercise class, chat to friends etc.
Other days I’ve pushed it too much and that’s fine....at least I know it’s my fault, I know what I've done....but then other days I can feel exhausted and breathless, without doing anything much, and just have to rest all day. It doesn’t always seem logical.
Do you think this is characteristic of micro-vessel problems?
Do you think the old ticker sometimes just says ‘Oh for goodness sake, just give me a rest?‘
Hi Kristin1812
Oh yes I do have the wobbly chin syndrome 😂😂 just when you really don’t want it to happen as well and the voice goes squeaky when you’re trying to get questions out for your cardiologist, with this lock down and it being telephone consultations, I’ve had the Dr go..... hello......hello.... finally a whisper of a ‘I’m still here’ and completely fine. 🙄 quick clear of the throat and back to normal until the call ends 😩😩😩😩
I’m not sure if it’s the spasms or not but probably the whole condition and meds etc.
Still trying to find my pace where I can deal with this but failing miserably, it’s difficult to do ‘life’ and work out where I git into it with this. And thank you 😊
It is very hard to work out exactly what’s working and why, isn’t it? . It seems to take ages. Rather like being set homework for the next 20 years!
But the alternative is giving up, and I’m certainly too cussed to do that.
How about you? Have you still got that fight in you? I hope so.
Do you know I really like it when people laugh or cry (especially the wobbly lip!) it’s so genuine. Like it really matters to you.
Hi FB
No you are not alone!! I cannot function on a day to day basis either. To top it all am not only battling with the chest pain/tightening/heaviness and getting out of breath but medication makes ankles swell to double their size.
I'm 45 and GP told me I may not be able to return to work. Totally frustrating and pardon the pun but I feel your pain 😊
Hi Fluffybee. You're not a pain at all!
I would honestly let your doctor know about the problems you're having. My hubby's health has gone down hill quite a bit in this hot weather.
Good luck and take care xxxx
Good point about the hot weather. We might feel rubbish most days, but this heat must be draining us so much more.
Why can’t I stop eating?
An abnormally slow exercising heart rate..... WHY?
Meds not working....why bother ?
Why Fitbit?
Why is it called heart failure?
