Microvascular angina
Hi, I've recently been diagnosed with
microvascular
angina
and awaiting an angiogram for further invasive testing to identify the cause. Anyone else out there managing this type of angina, any pointers for coping, long term prognosis, changes to medication appreciated.

Microvascular Angina
I was just diagnosed with
microvascular
angina
. Been taking medications but still feel mild chest pains and still feel weak after 4 days discharged from hospital. Is this normal?

Microvascular Angina
I have blacked out twice and an ambulance taken me to A&E where when asked if they are aware of
microvascular
angina
they are not. Against my principles I will see privately a Consultant at Papworth who is knowledgeable about
microvascular
angina
. Thank you for allowing me to rant😊

microvascular angina result/reading query
Hi all ! I had an angiogram that looked at Micro Vascular issues and had an IMR reading (index of microcirculatory resistance IMR) of 30 - which means a diagnosis of Micro Vascular Angina.. But does anyone know what this means? Is it good or bad? Barely on the charts or well along? I’ve tried googling

Dry skin
I have
Microvascular
Angina
and on a lot of meds. Does anyone else suffer from dry skin? I pile on lotions and potions topically and also take collagen but my arms and legs particularly have paper thin dry skin. I'm 58 and expect some of this but it does seem to be worse than I'd expect.

Lack.of information from doctors
Where I spent the next 12 days( I still don't know I was in for so long) I had an angiogram on the 1st of December and an MRI perfusion and CT scan I have been diagnosed with coronary artery spasms that triggers polymorphic VT,
microvascular
angina
and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.

Microvascular Angina
Having been diagnosed in June 23 with
microvascular
angina
and coronary spasm I wondered how others cope with this condition. My follow up appointment will not be until next May therefore I don't have a treatment plan in place yet.

Microvascular Angina and Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency AATD?
As the hospital described micro vascular angina to me as issues with the veins preventing blood flow to the heart, does anyone know if there is any connection between 'elastic veins' and
microvascular
angina
?

Recently Diagnosed with microvascular angina
I've just been diagnosed with
microvascular
angina
. I'm still in shock and not dealing well with the diagnosis. I feel like they've made a mistake (although probably not....). I had all the usual tests which came back fine and finally the exercise stress test and an angiogram.

I had an Echo this evening
It wouldn't pick up
microvascular
angina
, which has been mentioned. I am due to have a 24hr monitor soon too. I guess my cardiac nurse will be in touch soon to go over the report soon. Any ideas what I should expect next or indeed what I should be asking for.

PET scan microvascular disease
Now considering
microvascular
angina
. Anyone know anything about PET scans for that? Sounds expensive and wondering if NHS do this?
