Hello
I have just made a comprehensive post about my ESA and various other problems but l wanted to post a seperate thread about this.
A couple of weeks ago l was attending the hospital for Hydrothrapy when l had severe chest pain, hadn't even got in the pool! I was taken straight to A&E Ressuss and attacked with needles and wired to machinery. After a few hours l was sent to the obs ward for 24 hours. They then followed me up in 10 days for the fast access Cardiac clinic.
Despite all the tests etc l am still without diagnosis. I haven't had a heart attack thank goodness, my BP had been high and l was on antihypertensives, but in hospital my BP was extremely low, causing great excitement in ressuss!! and my pulse high, l was also found to have a slightly high cholesterol. At the fast access clinic they were at a loss to say why this had happened and prescribed Beta Blockers and Statins, l was unable to finish the treadmill test so have been referred to have an angiogram and possibly an angioplasty or a stent. There is a 10 week waiting list!!
Anyhow, l wanted to know if anyone has experience of this, l am quite OK with having it, l am just curious, or experience with chest pain, I'm pretty sure that the culmination of the horrendous year l have had so far is the reason, l had a routine heart check only 3 weeks prior to all this, l have congenital heart valve defects, and all was OK.
