Though my husband's cardiologist reassured us that the small vessel spasms are unlikely to cause a heart attack, we are still concerned. Hubby still has upper chest pain, two or three spells a day. He surmises that the medication is not doing anything. The cardiologist
suggested that hubby exercise...the body would recognize that it is not getting enough oxygen and grow new small vessels. But then again, the diagnosis is built on what the condition is not. A stress test showed that hubby has good blood flow, hence the pain is not caused by a blockage. It niggles at me....is the pain caused by vessel spasms?
