Hello :-)

I am sorry I have no experience with this

I have had heart attacks and Bypass surgery but I will say the Consultants are so good at what they do so you are in good hands and they will soon have you feeling a lot better :-)

I hope those that have this will be able to give you some better advise when they see your post :-)

Let us know how you get on :-) x

I have almost exactly the same problems, along with a lungs that don't always supply enough oxygen in my blood which in turn always triggers angina pains along with very noticeable palpitations, pins and needles and dizzy spells. BUT I have my life saver GTN spray at hand and a couple of puffs under the tongue and a few minutes of controlled deep breathing always puts matter to rights.

I am 72, I eat a very healthy diet, I do a lot of quite strenuous exercise and my weight is well under control as I learnt long ago that if you are even slightly overweight and don't do any exercise, then there will always be problems lurking just around the corner! Mind you I also have several glasses of red wine a day.
