Stress And Chest Pain Before Surgery For Back . Reason?
I am getting ready to have back surgery in a couple of weeks I know I am stressed but I have been having some chest pain that comes and goes I am on cardizem lopressor and diavan now for my blood pressure.today i started having more pain than usual in my neck i have had surgery on it also so I dont know if the neck is a symptom or if it is just bothering me more
Mild anxiolytics till the surgery like 0.25 mg of clonazepam may be helpful. Please make sure you consult with a psychiatrist as well as your cardiolgoist before using the medication. It should be taken both during the day and at night. I hope you bring this up with your cardiologist.
I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!
