Hey don't stress yourself and that's what A and E are for.

I am the same with the pains, I am getting them all over. A number of them for me are from the medication and from starting exercising.

Remember your life has changed and your mind can over work and over think. What do you do yo relax?

Ok, am I right in thinking that you do not have a GTN spray? Or for that matter are you on any medications?

So Yodayodz, you've got the answer! Keep using the spray and asprin as you need them. If I could also share with you my experiences as we all react differently to our heart issues.

I had HA last year and ended up with stents after a spending some time in hospital. Overall the angiogram/angioplasty was relatively painless. My cardiac rehab went well, then after sometime I was back into full-time work, I was well onto my way towards full recovery (so I thought). I looked upon it like having a tyre change, then back to normal (big mistake). Few months down the line I started to get pains in both arms only! This lasted for I whole week, I knew this was just an after reaction (several weeks after the event) to the angiogram, both arms were used in my case. Come November, the season for infections I ended up back in hospital because of stomach/chest/heart pains, I was using GTN every day. Many tests later, I was put onto Bisoprolol 1.25mg, this stopped me using the spray. Currently everything was ok, but I had a second infection I month ago which involved muscle pains all over, lasted 2 weeks. The GP told me it was viral, no easy fix and had to sweat it out at home. I'm generally fine right now.

Oh I'm so sorry you're feeling like this. If all the tests have come back ok then that's great news. However, I would speak to your GP & ask for support as maybe anxiety. Don't suffer on silence πŸ₯° xx

Pains in arms chest, neck can all be muscular. Has anyone done a simple x ray on your upper spine and neck? If you only told them about chest pain, that's likely all they would look at. You need to see yoru GP; tell him everything, leave nothing out Sounds like you need mediation for your anxiety and some reassurance about your condition. Good luck getting past the receptionist.
