Dear Ask The Doctor: On Sunday there was moderate hurting in my chest for several hours. At times I felt nausea and fatigue. I tried to ignore it because I did not want to spend hours in the emergency room. The feelings disappeared by evening and have not returned. Could this have been a slight heart attack or would it have continued?
Dear Kay: Due to your many cardiovascular risk factors and chest pain is a concern and needs to be investigated. I would suggest that you see your doctor for an electrocardiogram and blood-work to rule out a myocardial infarction. |
