Suggest Treatment For Jaw And Arm Pain During Pregnancy
I am 27 years olf and pregnant. I have been having jaw tightness, left arm tightness and ache, and short of breathe issue. My cardiologist started me on Imdur but I doesn t completly resolve everything, but it does make the shortness of breathe better. They think possible vasospasms. My question is my doctore said that he could do an angiogram safely during my pregnancy if it was needed but right now he is not considering it, is this true. I am 23 weeks, and I am nervous that I might have blockages, or if my eclampsia with my first child has anything to so with this. I never had any issues untill after I had my first child 2 years ago. Don t understand why I would have no symptoms of anything and now I do. Would this be possible? Thanks

Hi, I have gone through your question, and I think I have understood your concern.
1 ) First of all do not panic.
2 ) I will suggest you to start with low dose aspirin, Vitamin C and E and B 12 one each every night. Please have close follow up with the cardiologist.
3 ) I will suggest you to adopt a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen. Include more portions of fruits, salads and vegetables in daily diet. Drink plenty of water in the day. Avoid deep fried foods, bakery products and refined sugars. Avoid substance abuse if any..
4 ) For jaw pain , please consult ENT surgeon. Non cardiac pain of jaw will be helped by Tab Calpol 650 mg as needed.
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
