Could The Pain In Chest Be Due To Coronary Artery Spasms?
I have seen two doctors for chest pain. I have had stress test tilt table test and angiogram done. One doctor says that it is coronary artery spasms and the other says its angina. I quit my stressful job, and haven t had an attack in awhile. But in the last week I have had two attack. They seem to be getting worse. I went to the ER for this last one and they said everything looked ok. Can you have a mini heart attack and not know? I am still experiencing chest pain, but don t want to go back to the ER.

Hi,
Yes, coronary artery spasm causes exactly the same symptoms as angina and needs optimised medical treatment. You should definitely see your cardiologist for further treatment.
