[Eddie64]

after having a ha 20 months ago and 2 stents fitted I’m now suffering considerably pain in between my shoulder blades,chest and and also about half way down my back .this as been happening now for 3 months .I now have a appointment in a months time for a angiogram. My question is how safe is the angiogram second time round

I had 2 stents fitted 3yrs ago. I also suffered from pains between my shoulder blades afterwards and had a further Angiogram 4 months after my first. The procedure for me was fine but I was told that there were no blockage and diagnosed with Micro Vascular Angina. My pains are normally accompanied by constant burping. Actually I have had 3 Angiograms within a year and although there are risks I found I became more relaxed about them as I knew the process. I still live with pains between my shoulder pains, almost on a daily basis and try to manage it with medication. Hopefully you will have more success and have the causes of you symptoms addressed. Good luck.
