Living with presumed myocarditis which turned out to be MI
Sorry for this long post. I couldn't think how to make it shorter. I've found it hugely helpful to read the posts on this forum so I thought I'd reach out to seek some support and wisdom. My husband was fit and active (we enjoyed leisure cycling 15-20 miles, walking, gardening etc) until Oct '21. A

Pins and needles feeling
It all started on Tuesday. I had a bloated feeling and thought it was trapped wind? Took a Windeze and it seemed to help that feeling but then got a tingling in my face which was weird this then progressed to my shoulder's, arms and chest. It then seemed to ease and I just carried on. It was an effort

unstable angina
We have a friend who has unstable angina and has been in hospital countless times but nothing happens other than being given intravenous gtn and morphine. He also has low blood pressure which prevents him being given medication that may help but would lower his blood pressure causing dizziness. Has

More angina when walking
Hi all, I've started to get angina again when I walk and I'm worried my artery is blocking again. Just as a quick background had stent Oct 2021 for 99% blockage LAD artery. My symptoms were pain on walking. Pains never went away and in fact got much worse. November 21 had another stent for 99% blockage

When to Seek Help
I had a bypass 12 years ago, and have to admit that, since then, I've been hypervigilant about any symptoms I have, partly because I also suffer from anxiety and partly because I am blatantly aware of the consequences of 'getting it wrong'. In the early days this led to two or three visits to A&E with

angina
had a persistent dull ache in chest /arm /kneck all morning which didnāt drop on resting so had 2 sprsprays of gtn and fainted! No damage done. Angina has gone but am worried about using gtn now, because I live alone. What is more risky? The angina or the fainting?
