I have feelings of heaviness/pressure in the left chest. I was in the cardiac care unit at a near by hospital for 4 days. I am 58 years old. They did a cardiac cath and no plaque build up was found. EKG s looked good and blood work was within normal limits. My BP was high. I was sent home with a event loop recorder (which isn t working properly and I will get a new one tomorrow), blood pressure medication, told to take Prilosec to see if it helps and given a low dose anxiety medication. I am still having the same symptoms...pressure/squeezing sensation in heart with nausea, SOB, and when I take my pulse if is very strong, steady but then weakens until I almost don t feel it and then returns to normal after maybe 5-10 beats. Any suggestions on where to go from here. Personal history of Primary Biliary cirrhosis, hypothyroidism, migraine, anxiety (but due to these symptoms), and poly arthritis. I am a smoker, (quit when I got out of the hospital) and my father needed angioplasty at age 60, has high BP, and recently had a pulmonary emboli. I am going to the cardiologist again but wondered what suggestions you may have.
