Heart attack problem

[Badger132]

I had an heart attack 2 week ago with one stent and angioplasty and have been getting some discomfort on my left side it comes and go i don't get every day I am a little bit worried I have been told you can get this dose anyone else have the same problem any advice would be appreciated

I used to get it quite often, even when I sat back on a chair or slept on my left side. It has subsided somewhat but comes back now and again. Have mentioned this to the GP and when I have my annual check up they don't seem to be able to resolve the matter.

Your body is still recovering after two weeks. Try and relax worrying will only increase your BP. Has a cardiac nurse been in touch with you? If so get in touch and discuss your concerns.

No I haven't been intouch with the Cardiac nurse didn't know I have no body had a mention it to me do I phone the hospital or what

my husband got this a lot for the first few months. When you were discharged you should have been given a leaflet for cardio reab? If you have I would phone the number on that and mention it to the nurse, or try and get in at your gp.

+1 on finding out about cardio rehab plus contacting BHF nurse as Hidden as suggested
