My feed tells me your post was already 21 hours old when I saw it. Have you seen the GP yet. What was the result. Why were you sent home and what diagnosis did they give.

Hi thank you for the reply , when I went to ae , they took my bloods and did a ecg,told me everything ok and sent me home.And when I went to doctors I told him all my symptoms,he basically said the only thing he could advise is to go back to ae and do the same again

You need someone to give you a proper diagnosis and suggest appropriate treatment. What you experienced was not normal and you need to get it properly checked out and get a proper diagnosis. I think a call to 111 is appropriate but write down the symptoms and sequence of events so you don't forget anything. Please keep us all informed

Thank you will do

Well Eddie64, your not alone. I started having similar problems few months after my stents!

I could not work out whether, it was breathing, stomach or heart? However a chat with the GP, partly helped, (omezaparole).

With later troubles, I started to use the GTN spray, ended up using it daily. and then was started on Bisoprolol which is now working well, all is fine for now, have not used the spray ever since.

Thank you jedi unfortunately I’m already on bisoprolol 1.25m ,my cardiologist is supposed to be chatting to his colleagues about maybe a pacemaker but I have a niggling doubt that it’s not what’s causing it , yet no one has tested me for angina or unstable in a bit of a worrying pickle at the moment

Don't like the sound of that if you get these pains go straight to A & E

[Eddie64 in reply to KIMMY60]

Thank you I already tried that just sent me home

Hi Eddie64 what do the doctors say is causing these pains there must be something. Have they referred you for tests to be carried out to get to the reason why. What is happening to you is not normal you shouldn’t be waking up with these pains. I hope they investigate further and you get some answers. Good luck

[Eddie64]

thank you for your reply,all the doctors say is to go back to a and e and do the same again I’m getting no where just round in circles, and I can’t get another appointment with my cardiologist for love or money,told him last appointment but they just seem to brush you off

[Eddie64]

so the update is I’ve spent the last day and half in hospital ,blood test done and ECG,second ECG came back abnormal I left this till 5 days after episode,cardiologist just been to see me and told me , it’s not a heart attack,as my train levels are 0 and the symptoms I had are not heart related go figure
