Microvascular angina fatigue
Hi all. I have been prescribed isosorbide mononitrate to treat microvascular angina symptoms. Will it help to relieve the fatigue that I seem to experience constantly and which I have attributed to the MVA?

Need some practical advice
On March 9th I went into hospital with chest pains. On the 13th I was discharged with a diagnosis of unstable angina, with some new pills called Nicorandil and a summary discharge letter. I have had an echocardiogram and a heart CT. Since I was discharged I’ve heard nothing - no outpatient appointment

I have had to use my GTN spray several times after my heart attack kast September. I dread using it and put off using it as it makes dizzy and i feel really sick and get a head breaking headache within minutes of using it. Does anyone else suffer any problems using it?

New to heart problems
Hello all, I have been a “watcher” for a while and thought that it was time to say hello and post my story. After a routine phone conversation with my Dr over a completely different matter, { testosterone levels } she noticed that I was out of breath. I explained that I had just done something and was

Is it safe to take isosorbide mononitrate with a betablocker and ACE inhibitor? Does any poster here take all three?
Hi, I'm new here. I had to go to hospital on Sunday because I have been getting chest tightness / burning sensation in my chest for a couple of weeks. I was told that I most likely had angina. I had a heart attack back in 2010 and didn't want to take any chances. I was prescribed isosorbide mononitrate

Cycle No More – or maybe?
I had my latest angiogram on Friday 5 mar, the result of which was that no additional stents were fitted and that no physical improvement actions were implemented. Although I was aware of the possibility that no improvements would be possible during this process I really was not mentally prepared for

Questions about stents and support
Update and questions I haven't posted on here for a while for many reasons (including the whole COVID thing) but as I'm still trying to get my head round stuff and had questions, I'm hoping there are some of you out there who can offer me some ideas/support. I'm currently seen at the Brompton, where

Coronary Angiogram
I'm due to go into have this on Wednesday. Very relieved, slightly nervous... more than slightly when I think about it too much. The hospital have decided to do a two in one so to speak, if they find it's a blocked artery they will put in a stent whilst I'm there so I'm taking blood thinning tablets

Heart Twinges after physical activity
I had 3 stents fitted after MI in April last year. Every now and then, I get twinges in my heart. I this is normal and nothing to worry about. I cycle at least 5 days a week for 6 miles, HR up to 130 with no issues. My concern is, after being very active over the weekend, house clearing, I am having

anxiety after a stent fitting
Hi. I'm new here. I had a series of HAs, an angiogram and a stent in the LAD coronary artery two weeks back, in Oxford's JR hospital. Everything was fine, and this miraculous operation described as 'routine'. Since then I've often felt perfectly ok, but have also had days (and nights) where I almost
