I can understand why you don't want to go back to the doctor, but it might be the best thing for you. I'd like to say God Bless you for everything you've had to endure, I'm sure it hasn't been an easy road. Best to you and your family.

You sound like me. This is the kind of question I would ask too prior to getting the treatment I eventually got. It's kinda like playing russian roulette, only with your heart. I played it too. I made excuses not to have to deal with a problem I knew was getting worse. Your body is giving you multiple warnings. And... If what you are looking for is confirmation to an answer that you really don't want to hear than I am sorry, I have to jump on the bandwagon. You need to get ahold of your Cardiologist and tell them exactly what you have told us.
You know what... anticipating that I may need open heart surgery for a period of time because my condition was deteriorating was far worse than actually having it.
Call the Dr. You have already been through the worst part. Facing the fact that you have a heart condition that could end your life. Anything they throw at you now is only to improve your chances and your quality of life. Time may be running short.
I am sorry if what I have said upsets you. And I am *really* sorry if what I have said to you does not pertain to you, but if it does, I hope you listen.
Best of Luck....

Sounds like you have some congestive heart failure and angina. Go see your cardiologist. Do not take herbs without consulting your cardiologist because may of the herbs can interact with the heart medications.
