Being Treated With Bronchitis. Having Chest Pain. Had Multiple Stent Placements. What To Do?
I had an MI on 2/1/11 with multiple stent placements. i have had stress tests regularly (most recent 1/28/13) and results have been good. I am now being treated for bronchitis and I have chest pain when I go out to exercise. Temp outside is upper 30 s. I am worried as I have not had any symptoms since I had my MI and was wondering if the bronchitis can be a factor. Thank you, Alan
Hello
Well come to health care magic
Dear patient, as you are a known case of coronary artery disease, had MI on 2/1/11 and have multiple stents placed, and now you are experiencing chest pain while going for exercise, you will need to consult a cardiologist to rule out unstable angina or other aspects of acute coronary syndrom, even if your rescent stress test was normal or even if you may be having bronchitis. Bronchitis can cause cough, breathing difficulty but chest pain during exercise is not so common
thanks
