Hello,
Considering your complaints, it is necessary to exclude a possible cardiac ischemia. For this reason, I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam, a resting ECG and cardiac enzymes.
Performing an exercise cardiac stress test or stress echo will be necessary in order to investigate for coronary artery disease.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka
