hello, how are you all brave people. i posted here from many months. i want to explain much short.
i have up and down heart condition from 7 year. day by day it goes worse. in short cardiologist did my Angio Graphy in April 2020. he found 30 to 40 percent blockage and suggested medical treatment. but my condition go worse and worse. cardiologist said u need psychology treatment. that i did in previous years and again start now. i also change my cardiologist told him all story. he did My ETT that show micro vascular angina. i run 6 mint on treadmill. cardiologist give me medicines. common medicines that other heart patient taken like blood thiner, beta blocker etc. medicine did not suit me. i concerned an other cardiologist and he suggest if medicine dont suit u , you quit medicine for 4 day and then see. i quit 4 days i feel better. i again go to my previous cardiologist and told him story. he also suggest if heart medicine dont suit u you can quit it. take honey with water.
now my problem is that I dont do walk. if i walk half kilometer my heart tired not my legs or body. i m 40 year old not married. my heart cannot bear exertion or load. feel like my heart is weak. so i m afraid and dont do walk. because when i do walk my heart cannot take proper oxygen blood from lungs and my condition become serious. i am also taking anxiety medicines. my i always feel my chest heavy.

I think many of us have despaired of doctors and the chopping and changing of medications, and so many of them make us feel worse. We wonder, sometimes, if they have a clue. (Or I do).
A psychologist that works with the body, rather than wanting to hear your life history, might be a good idea.
These days many psychologists work with the body - the breath, exercises for anti-anxiety via the vagus nerve, meditation and other somatic interventions. The 'soma' as much as the 'psyche'.
Your anxiety needs to be dampened down, and physical things can help, as can music.
If you can not walk one kilometre, walk one hundred meters.
Get into nature when you can, walk barefoot on the grass, search out the peaceful things you have enjoyed in the past.
I say all this because I am in the same place as you, and currently hunting for a suitable psychologist to deal with my own anxiety. Anxiolytic meds can help to a degree, but actions help more.
Remember, there is always an element of trauma in knowing that your heart is in trouble, and the stress makes it worse.
The heart doctors only focus of pills for the heart. They neglect the big and important topic of helping us to heal from the huge mental trauma of accepting we have disease in our hearts. Heart doctors have no training or experience in treating that mental trauma, so they only concentrate of giving us heart pills.
Do try to find a psychologist who has experience helping heart disease patients heal from the mental trauma of heart disease. I too am in the same position as Parminter and yourself. Need to heal from the mental trauma of heart disease. The heart pills don't do that - the heart pills only act on the heart, and they have no beneficial action on our mental health at all.
