Hello all,
just figured I would let you all know that I went back to the ER on Sunday with chest pains. My left arm tightened up, as well. I thought I was having another heart attack, but it turns out it was angina. I am just wondering if anyone else has gone through this. I am only 29 years old. Posted on 09/26/08, 09:09 pm |

I experienced angina off and on for over 5 years before my 2 massive heart attacks in June of this year. The thing was, I never realized what it was. I went to the E.R. a number of times and was told it was either stress-related angina that would go away when the stress was removed, or Acid Reflux disease that a purple pill would cure. Then the heart attacks, 4 stents and a double bypass to clear two 95% blocked arteries, one being the "Widow Maker Artery". See a Dr. yesterday, please. It is scary, all right. It is also more than important that you see your regular Dr. or, better yet, a cardiologist ASAP.
Be well and I hope and pray all goes well with you.

Chest pains is also one of the Adverse side effects of all stents. Make sure you are not metal allergic before any more stents go in. Once they are in they can't be removed. Kinda dumb to make something that doesn't come out with the history of humans being allergic to metal implants since the beinning of time.
Have you ever looked at the Manufactures Direction for Use GUide. It's an owners manual on you new part. It lists the adverse events and things you are supposed to look out for. The law says you are supposed to get one if you didn't find out way. When you get one see how many adverse events you are experiencing today. Google metal allergy or heavy metal toxicity to learn about other symptoms related to metal allergy systemmically. Here are a couple web sites to get you started www.fda.gov/cdrh/medicaldevicesafe... www.MELISA.org www.HBOTreatment.com www.noamalgam.com www.totaljoints.info/metal_allergy...

Errr......where does Aaron say anything about having stents placed? Am I missing something in the post?
I DO have 4 stents, and I guess I have no allergies, because the angina and chest pains STOPPED after the stents and the bypasses were done on the other 2 arteries. No use scaring Aaron with this stent stuff if we don't know whether that even applies. They just MIGHT save Aaron's life someday. Be well and take care everyone.
