Hi, I'm not a medical expert, but I would day that if you have any worrying symptoms seek some medical advice. If in the UK ring 111, book a go appointment or try ringing BHF helpline. Don't just ignore unusual symptoms. Probably nothing to worry about but better to check than ignore.

Hi Badger. Do you have a heart failure nurse you can speak to? It should certainly be mentioned to someone asap.

Hi Badger - unless you’re a medical specialist, don’t consider yourself a pain when it’s related to your health and wellbeing - they are here for you and would say the same…

Frank here, hallo. "Welcome to the Club". Where you were treated will have given you advice/pamphets and a follow-up visit. Do exactly what you`re told. What you are feeling is common; your heart has had a `kick`...it`s bruised...you just can`t see it.

Relax and learn to use your GTN spray. Ask your doctor.

For the record, my first attack was in `85 and by following medical detail to the letter, I`m still around at 73. A lot of my cardiac `friends` are gone due to being silly. Listen and you`ll learn a lot.

Keep the faith (as they say in the USA).

Frank.
