Breathless and clammy

I suffered a heart attack in Spain on the 6th March 2022, I had 2 stents fitted as my right artery was completely blocked and my left artery was very narrow. I have recovered well, but just recently I have become breathless even when just having a conversation, also a feeling of being very clammy a few times a day. I have been to the doctor, and had an ECG, and blood tests, and now waiting on a chest x-ray, does anyone else experience this, I am slightly concerned !

Dear ballroom dancing

I think the secret to answer your post is that your feelings are not right for you and your body, something that only you know.

It sounds like that the medical profession is following up all the work that has been done in Spain and it does take a little while for the results of all the tests can be collated for a plan of intervention { if needed } to start.

it is so easy to say don't worry to someone and the worry I and many others can understand but the wheels are turning and very soon you will have your answers, hopefully the results will help you with the worry as you already know something is not quite right.

There is no doubt that the action in Spain was needed, maybe a little more is as well, be that a change in medication or more tests.

Remember you are not alone and if we can help in anyway please just ask

Take care and please keep us informed.
