Chest Pains without enzymes showing a heart attack

I have been experiencing severe chest pains much like that when I had my prior heart attacks. I went to the ER over a week ago and after a stress test, it was determined that it was angina. But now, not only do I have the chest pains, I am having skipped beats that takes my breath away. It is so hard to catch my breath at times. I also have a feeling of faintness from time to time. I am without insurance, so I can't follow up with a cardologist, but I know there is something wrong. I can't convince the residents at the county hospital of this. I am wondering if a heart cath would prove this. It sucks today without insurance. I always had it until I lost my job. I went to the ER with chest pains and shortness of breath shortly after I lost this job and before I could put a policy in place. They found the right coronary artery was blocked 90%. That was it. I had been diagnosed with CAD and now no insurance will accept me unless I have around $800 a month for a policy that won't cover the CAD for 12 months anyway................Please help!!

Hey Tush!!, I missed you. Honest.
IslandMomma - yeah, it was disappointling to have the sham played on us.  Excuses are made, apologies are made, eh, life goes on...What is the old saying, "Fool me once, shame on you.  Fool me twice, shame on me."??
Awake - you excel at the nasty comments yourself.
V - good day
Jack - drama is not necessary.  If you truly want to help you do not have to make yourself a victim.  If you have pride in yourself, that should be enough.  You threw a death threat at me, but I didnt care then, and dont now.  Dont wish you ill, I just find it easier on my heart to ignore your personalities.
Jim - hello, didnt want to just ignore you
Chatter - sorry for the hijack of your post.

Ya :)
New people came. Just like as a World Turns. Just like as people move, just like we born and die....they are (WE ARE) book-marked that site, we might be here to stay..........we don't need a permit from the OLD posters ,do we? :)

Oh and before I forget THAT board is not  that board you had before us, you got a new board as we all know a board for all your PVC needs where you can feel free from us, remember? I could go there too and all of us new people, we not only have heart disease, but arrhythmias as well. I personally wont, I respect your "playground" and PVC support group THERE.  

Support has many different forms. Hugging and being sweet only one way. Just let everybody be as he /she is.

This is a new board order, like it not; you and all those old posters whom feeling the same about us, just deal with it finally would you?:)

Have a great week-end ALL .
