Hello all. Many of you know me. I’m 41 year old male and had an MI in Feb this year. Since then 2 stents fitted and still have two narrowings in small arteries which my cardiologist is trying to control with medication.
This question may be silly but I’m still going to ask anyway.
As you can see in the picture, I can do workout on exercise bike for hours without any chest pain. I keep my heart rate around 120 -130 BPM during this workout. This is the highest intensity I should aim at as was told by cardiac rehab nurse.
However, any upper body workout knocks me down with severe chest pain. Even when I walk, I get chest pain.
Anyone have / had any similar experience or can shed some light on it. ?
