Hello :-)

You need to contact 111 straight away and get their advice or get to A&E if you can't then phone an ambulance

Let us know how you get on :-) x

Hi poppy40, as BeKind28 has advised you must get this checked out sooner rather than later. An update would be good. Take care

You need to urgently get attention. Can someone get you to And E?

If you use GTN but the pain comes back in half an hour use it again then ring 999. I had a similar thing, GTN might alleviate it, until I moved, then it came back. The above advice is what my cardiologist told me.
