So in 2019 I had a stent after HA. Now four years later getting tightness cross chest, can still walk up 3 steps of stairs ok. Once I stop out walking it settles down again. I’m also asthmatic.
My question is has any had a second stent that resolved this. I take glycerin spray once a month.
thanks

As BK says you must see your GP ASAP to get a cardiologist referral. Only being able to take 3 steps means there's somethjng which needs investigation. It could be your stent has stenosis (re blocking) or it could be another artery which needs attention. Get that appointment made ASAP. All the best.
I thought that was pretty low! OK, so you're not as bad as I thought but I still think you should get checked out. I only got angina walking up hills and whilst in cold water but was found to need a triple bypass. For the sake of a couple of appointments I think its worth it especially as you've already got history.
