cardiac cath

by boochie1, Apr 09, 2008 01:05PM
I had a nuclear stress test last august and was positive for blockages and a problem with a valve. I had a heart cath 2 days later and it was normal. I have had no follow up from that either. last week i started walking and started to have chest pain again and finally ended up in the hospital a few days later. everything turned out normal but i need to follow up wiht a cardiologist. i still have shortness of breath and horrible back pain and my question is could that catherizatioin been wrong? I have been very fatigued lately and i'm looking for some answers. should i have another cath done?
