Urgent cardiologist appt tomorrow, any tips?

Hello,

I've been in and out of a&e with leg & chest pain, lightheadedness, high BP 4 times this past 8 weeks since my HA & stent. So I've had an urgent referral to the cardiologist to start the process to see if I have unstable angina & possible vascular issues in my leg.

I've got my list of questions but I really don't know what to expect. I've read everything I could find on here but thought I'd reach out to see what you all wished you'd asked at your 1st cardiologist appt after your heart event.

Thanks in advance!

I'm waiting to receive my appointment as got referred by cardiac rehab team when I attended after having 2 stents fitted but they think I may have angina.Other I don't know what questions you already have, but my only suggestion would be write them down and bring it with you to the appointment,

Best of luck for your appointment.

Just write the history of your illness to refer too, and a list of your symtoms they tend to ask most of the questions
