Ecg: There are changes in the ecg that indicate the probability that the heart is experiencing ischemia. The symptom of this is angina. We do see these changes with exercise, stress and other drivers which happen without the angina symptom, but still strongly suggest the ischemia is present.

Question 5

can unstable angina last for 24 hours?

Accepted Answer

Don't wait: In unstable angina, you are at high risk of losing heart tissue causing loss of muscle and/or rhythm disturbance ("arrest") leading to sudden death or permanent disability. It is unlikely you would have continuous unstable angina pain for 24 hours; more likely to have on-off pain over the 24 hours. That said, seconds and minutes count – don't wait!

Question 9

iv have micro vascular dysfunction & have angina i keep getting pain to the right of my chest it comes & goes & lasts a few secs is this normal?

Accepted Answer

No: Pain in the chest is never normal. Whether the pain is significant is the more important question. You state that you have Angina so I assume that there is a different type of thing that you're having. Pain in the right side of the chest is atypical for angina. Pain lasting for just a few seconds in the chest is rarely significant. So your pain is not normal but probably not significant.that said, you should consult your physician.

Question 10

how much time does angina in throat lasts?

Accepted Answer

Angina: True angina lasting more than a few to 30 minutes would then be considered more unstable angina and potentially a heart attack.  If you are truly experiencing what you perceive as angina, you should be evaluated in an ER as this is a potentially serious symptom.
