Brief Answer:
Please, what are your symptoms!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these symptoms that you have reported. I am not exactly sure what you mean by heart symptoms as many symptoms related to heart disease can be caused by many other disease conditions. I will like that you describe your symptoms as they are so that I can analyze to tell if they are heart related or not.

If you are stable with a good blood pressure, no sever chest pain, and no symptoms of passing out, I will suggest that you stay cal and rather work on getting an appointment for your symptoms to be evaluated. If this is not the case, then get an ambulance to the ER for immediate evaluation. Being able to write to us through this portal is suggestive of a stable state of health that warrants no emergency action right now.

I hope this addresses your query fully. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
