What Causes Pain In Fingers When Applying Pressure On Bladder After A Stent Insertion?
I had a heart attack and my symptoms were severe pain in my fingers - two stents later, when I apply pressure to my bladder to empty it, I am getting the same kind of pain in my fingers. Am seeing my Heart Specialist next week and will ask but the pain is exactly what had just before my heart attack. What is the connection. M. Petrow
Hi welcome to Hcm I understand your query and concern. Your symptoms could possibly represent ischemic changes in the heart .I advise you to get an ECG,2 D Echo,lipid profile to assess the cardiac status.In case if the cardiac profile is normal,nothing needs to be done further.But all such cases need reevaluation.Stent status needs to be revised if any.The urine abnormality pertaining to bladder is quite unlikely and hence can be ruled out with ease.Consult an expert cardiologist for further care.Post your further queries if any. Thank you.
