A member asked:
How serious are coronary spasm? is this different than a heart attack?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variable course: If you have all the tests done and the cardiologist decided that you have variant/prinzmetal angina , you are prone to have a variable course. Generally you have good prognosis if they did not find any lesions on the cath. Recurrent chest pain and very rarely mi/ arrhythmia can occur.
