I Have Been Having Heart Mild Heart Attacks Can Yo Help Me
I think I have been having heart mild heart attacks can you help me? 6 years ago I was diagnosed with having had a heart attack and an expanded heart. I have since stopped all of my bad habits but still have chest pain and sweats with confusion and nausea that last for 5 to 15 minutes then go away. I had that happen again 2 days ago and now my chest pain won t go completely away and I keep getting sick to my stomach and breaking out in sweats. Whats going on, I am average weight and 53 years old.

You most certainly need to see a physician very soon. If the symptoms get worse with activity, it probably is some kind of blockage that is causing your heart to not get the O2 it needs. However, if your acitivity level does not affect the symptoms, it may be angina. If you have some nitro tabs, you should probably put one under your tongue.
