Had a call 2 days ago from cardiologist saying he thinks I have microvascular dysfunctionVasospastic angina. I asked him were they different conditions & he said they were the same thing but different names...? He was very rushed and I didn't think to ask him so many things. He's putting me on ranexa for a few weeks to see if that helps alleviate the pain. What questions should I ask him when I talk to him again? I'll definitely ask can I exercise as I need to lose weight altho that seems impossible atm with the chest pressure I get both at rest and moving around.
Do cardiologists usually pass you back to your gp with this condition?
Thanks!

You need to be seen by a Cardiologist as MVA and VSA are complex conditions. Ask you GP to refer to a Cardiologist who has some expertise in caring for patients in MVA and VSA.
