Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Do Numbness And Tingling Sensation In The Arms Indicate?
I m post heart attack, ischemic heart disease. Waiting to have an angiogram with a cardiologist. I m home now waiting for appt. I get chest pain off and on if I do too much, have numbness and tingling in the arms, it feels like my veins are tight. Tired easily. I m concerned. I don t want to waist time going back to the hospital.
In my opinion, you should definitely consult cardiologist as soon as possible. Since you already had a heart attack, we should definitely rule out cardiac cause for your current symptoms. You will need ECG, 2d echo, stress test, and coronary angiography. So rush to emergency for an early appointment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Kaushal Bhavsar
