Wow, Thanks for the feedback Wally0806 and Connie122516 and Lutheran122. As a matter of fact, I went for a second opinion back in November. I brought the results of my initial EKG, the stress test and the Echo with me. He looked at those before he came in to see me. He walked in and asked me why I was there, listened to my heart and ankles and said I was a healthy young woman, it's nothing to worry about... get out of here. But that never explained the chest pains. I'm supposed to see my cardio dude in 3 weeks. I'm expecting him to just say, I'll see you in 3 months. I will see what he says. If he pushes me off, I'll look into a third opinion. I know my body and something isn't right.
I was taking the 81 mg of Bayer, but it was interacting with the calcium channel blocker I'm taking and causing me to bruise a lot. I went off the Bayer and the bruising stopped. I'm trying to watch the fats, the salts, cholesterol (213 total, 123 LDL, and 78 HDL), and I've increased my exercise. I don't know what more I can do. I don't want this angina to take over my life, I want to live it. I'm glad to hear that it does get better, somewhat, anyway.

BTW, what is IMHO?
