Angina ?

Posted , 3 users are following.

hi all im just awaiting an appointment to have an angiography for suspected angina ( or to rule it out )

i had two troponin blood tests 6 hours apart , which both read exactly the same 20 totally unchanged

the reason the dr wants me to go back is the troponin level, she said that its very slightly raised , but it shouldnt raise above 14 my father had a heart attack at 52 ( im 50) so they want to check im VERY thankful dont get me wrong , but are the troponin levels that crucial ?
