Guest guest Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Tammy, Yes, it can cause chest pain. They need to do an echocardiagram. There are other tests, also.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Tammy, I had the left-right heart cath about 18 months ago. It was part of my lung transplant evaluation. I had no symptoms of heart trouble. They found an 80% blockage in the right coronary artery. It would not have been long until I would have had a full blown heart attack and with my lungs like this.....I would not have made it. So, the cath saved my life. Did they see something on the echo or something else that would cause them to want a cath. They usually do not do those without good cause. Find out!

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Tammy, SOB can cause chest pain and ask them for an echocardiogram to rule out Pulmonary Hypertension.
