How to get help from md
Posted , 1 user is following.
Several months ago I began having a tightness in my chest into my right side (center of my sternum out to under my right rib cage) along with a weird achy pain in my neck shoulder area at my collar bone some times traveling to my hand. I assumed the pain in my shoulder and arm have to do with my ddd but I figure I should include as many details as I can to ask for help. I mentioned it to my md at my appt in Feb. He did a ekg in his office. And said it was clean and gave me another antinflamatory. Which did nothing. He seems to have very little concern about it. And he has never been dismissive of any complaint before he has always been one of the Dr who gets to the bottom of something before he stops. But him being so dismissive is bothering me. I have been researching and i am concerned it may be unstable angina since it's still bothering me I have a family history of heart problems. My grandpa died from complications of chronic a fib and my dad of chf. How do I get my Dr to look at this closer. I would raither go through tests and it be nothing than let something go like my dad did till it's too late.
