Something to concern myself with?

Hello all. In 2015 I had a cardiac catheterization as I was experiencing some chest pains that thankfully was totally clear, in fact the cardiologist said he'd have to get a microscope to find any plaque!! I was 62 then. But! What is playing on my mind is he put in the report there was some abnormality in the physiology but no further explanation. I've tried to contact the cardiologist twice but had no response. As I'm now 68 is this something to worry about also I've had two stress tests in the past that showed I had angina but I haven't as the cath showed - could that be the abnormality at work? I've tried my GP and they couldn't locate the hospital report am I being a bit over anxious do you think. Sorry for the long post!

My thinking is that any health concern that causes you anxiety and worry needs looking into even if it's just to put your mind at rest. Sometimes information isn't easily found but as all our health records are now stored in computer files your cardiologist details should be accessible . I would speak to your GP again as maybe they were really busy the first time you asked and they did not consider your request to be a priority. Good luck.
