Went to A&E with crazy heart beats and now I’m being told I might have angina , I’m so confused not to mention terrified, I can’t get anywhere with a diagnosis or treatment and don’t know which way to turn , sorry just needed to tell someone and don’t want to frighten my kids x

I’ve been trying to sort this out since April, I’ve had 7 days on cardiology ward and many overnights at hospital everyone seems to have a different opinion , I’ve got another appointment on Tuesday, wish me luck

Good luck on Tuesday! In the meantime if you don’t already do this (and this is something my husband has found very useful) keep a daily written record of how you’re feeling each day along with what you did, the meds you took and when etc. It helps in having an objective discussion with Drs because you’ve got all the information to hand. Also, write down any questions as soon as you think of them, nothing’s too daft or silly to ask. Then write down the answers as the Dr gives them.

All the best to you and your loved ones.

I have spoken to everyone and to be honest I’m getting nowhere, fortunately I do have appointments coming up soon so with a bit of luck I’ll get something from them
