Hi had a CT calcium test and a CT angiogram on 20th September nothing has come up on my airmid app , I am still waiting for a date for an echocardiogram to check out a heart murmur, Cardiologist said earlier on in the year would see me after all tests are in. Thanks for your help

hi don’t know what airmid app is but you could try contacting your cardiologist’s secretary to ask timescales, might be able to help. Different areas can have different timescales though. With a Ct angiogram, on mine they told me what was found there and then in the Cath lab.

When they finished my CT angiogram my upper chest was hurting bad I was holding my chest all the way back to the car and was hurting most of the night, When they were doing CT angiogram they asked me if I had asthma or COPD had 4 injections to slow heart down. Has anyone had had any issues like this thanks

I don’t have excessive pain after, I’d started on aspirin straight after that really upset my tummy and was very painful. I seemed to have a fair few injections at my Ct scan to get me where they needed me to be. But no not excessive pain after angiogram.

l had my tests around the same time as you, was that the stress test where you have 2 tests a week apart and have to eat a sandwich. I was injected with radioactive dye and I was told the results would be back in 10 days and l would be seeing a cardiologist. I haven’t heard anything yet. My chest got very tight during the test and l found it quite scary. I live in Canterbury Kent
