Cardiac Spasm With Hellatious Angina Posted: 02-04-04 01:48am
Hi, I have a rare condition called cardiac
spasm and have angina attacks at least 30+
times per month. I'm on medication that's
suppose to stop this from happening but it
doesn't seem to work and they have no
answers for me as to relieve it. I live
on nitro tabs and wear a 0.6 nitro patch
every day. If you have had anything
similar to this please let me know. It's
been a long haul that's going nowhere.

Hi
I had a stroke Aug last year followed by a
heart attack 3 weeks later.
I also suffer from angina attacks
frequently, had a strong attack tonight
most attacks i finish up in IC ward in
hospital for 3 to 4 days I use nitro tabs
and use 0.6 patch also I also wear a 3 day
patch for pain (Durogesic 100)
+ endone pain tabs + all the other
blockers etc. My angina is caused by major
build up of fatty deposits in my veins
arteries etc my stroke was caused by my
carotid arteries blocking up one 100% that
cant be fixed the other was 92%+ blocked
that one was cleared by surgery had 3
stents put in my heart but now need bypass
surgery. and have found out this year that
i have blockage behind my left knee that
needs attention go back next month to see
the surgeons to fix that problem getting
tired of hospitals and surgery
