Pain down my arm ?
I’ve been getting quite a lot of pain down my arms even just the right one, sometimes without chest pain. Is that anyone else has or is it just me. And if anyone does do you use your GTN spray. It could be I’m trying to do a little bit more walking and a bit more active, trying to get my confidence back

Angina Pains
Hey all, I had a heart attack 4 years ago at the ripe old age of 32 due to diabetes. I got 3 stents put in (dissolvable). I get angina from time to time but not during activity, but during rest.. most of the time. The past week my angina has gotten more frequent. Usually I don't use my GTN spray as the

H/A Then Angina
Hi guys, newbie here I'm just coming up to the first anniversary of my ha and stent (I'm 55). A few months ago I started to experience chest pain upon exertion, so my doctor has put it down to angina and given me a gtn spray (which I have to use occasionally), and also isosorbide mononitrate to go with

Few GTN sprays on my positive walks.
Got my trainers out, 3/4 leggings I used to wear, sunglasses on, all dressed for the occasion!!! If anyone was behind me they’d have thought what on earth is she doing. I started off slowly then on to a sensible walking pace, oh wow I thought, this is wonderful. Then!!!!! It started, aching across my

Positive thought 😃
I’ve decided I have been quite worried about walking to far because of my symptoms, so today I’m going to go for it, take it easy to start and see how I get on and build up, I used to walk my dog twice a day for miles, bike loads. Not going that far yet but getting started, GTN firmly one my pocket,

Concerned by chest pain
I'm starting to get worried now. Last week I was admitted to hospital after 4 days of chest pain. I underwent several ECGs and a couple of blood tests and the conclusion was that it was not a cardiac event. I'm now on my 8th day of chest pain. Where the pain is seems to vary - upper chest, lower chest

MVA - Spasms and Exercise

Diagnosed with coronary artery disease and unstable angina feel anxious
Hi all, I have cad and unstable angina, I was diagnosed 18 months ago. I'm on the usual meds statins, calcium channel blockers, beta blockers, aspirin and, my gtn spray which I can't do without... I feel I was diagnosed, which was a shock and then left to fend for myself, I feel alone in all this

Still anxious of diagnosis
Hi again, it is now several weeks since given diagnosis of (LAD - minor atheromatous changes- left diagonal branch is a good size vessel with focal stenosis of 90% ) I am on atorvastatin 40mg at night and aspirin 75mg daily. The consultant has said he will review me in 6 months as my message before

VEGF Inhibitors.
The list below is copied from a paper published last year [1]. As many might recall, untreated tumors outgrow their blood supply. Contrary to popular belief, cancer does not "hate" oxygen. Oxygen insufficiency (hypoxia) results in production of HIF-1alpha (hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha), which triggers

Heart Spasm?
Hi all, On Sunday afternoon I had a sudden intense “spasm” , felt like someone had reached in and squeezed my heart. I’ve had similar feelings occasionally before but this time it left me with a tight, heavy “lump” in the middle of my chest which would not go away...on top of which I felt weak, ill and

Just home from hospital !!
I’d had chest pain, down both arms across shoulders and my back, that just wouldn’t shift with the GTN spray. Ambulance, morphine and goodness knows what else later as that morphine is pretty good stuff, X-ray ECG monitored, then my blood pressure went down to 97/43 put on fluids, I think they understood

Short Angina. Advice please
I would be most appreciative of any comments or advice. I have been getting possible Angina pains when walking up even slight inclines but they usually last only around 20 seconds. If I stop, pains stops. I have only used my GTN 3 times in 3 months but am still so very anxious prior to walking up even
