Heart problems/strange sensation at night heat racing with sort of pain in chest.?

Posted , 3 users are following.

i have been diagnosed with hypertonic cardiomyopathy.

on beta blockers etc.

This sensation that i get,is very difficult to describe,but all i can say,is that it feels like pressure ,on my chest.

It only happens occasionally,maybe once a week,but is very distressing,and when it happens,i cannot put my head down,and have to stay upright.

any ideas?

regards, Richard

    With your heart condition, please get in touch with a health professional as soon as possible. Don't wait until it becomes a serious problem especially with the currant environment. You have a serious heart condition, if you are feeling pressure on your chest you need to contact a specialist. People may think at the moment they may be putting pressure on health services, but because of what is happening, operations and procedures getting cancelled leaving more doctors to help emergency patients like yourself. Patients like you are the people they are advising to contact them. You can make contact first through a phone call and see what a doctor would think with your symptoms and heart condition and if you need to be seen and/or given medication. It is very important for people with heart conditions not to leave their symptoms too late to be treated.
