Wow Heart Attack 3

Rate this question


SP4RVN1971

Question

July 29 2012 went to primary heart doctor with chest pains, and on August the 6th they did a stress test and all the other tests. Did not find anything, but two days had another attack and three later had another attack. This time I had Nitro and it helps, and Went to the ER and had to put a stent in last friday. What a rush, the doc's say sad.png I will be fine until the next one. At home and resting. I know the pain so i will be ready next time.

Good luck and congratulations to you for surviving the events! Some didn't!

Hopefully, the stent will solve most of your problems. Consider taking Nitro tablets initially (one) when you have symptoms that may progress into angina, or perhaps an unexplained feeling of fatigue, along with quite a few others. "Heavy-ness in the legs" is another one. Taking a drink of cold water may also stop (well, cold) some of the early symptoms.

I would imagine that the cath to do the stint implantation also included imaging that should show any other potential problems.
