What Is The Treatment For Chest Pain, Jaw Ache And Breast Pain After Having Failed Angioplasty?

I'VE HAD 2 HEART ATTACKS LATE LAST YEAR (WITHIN 2 WEEKS OF EACH OTHER--ONE WAS AN ANGIOPLASTY, WHICH FAILED; THE SECOND ONE, IN THE SAME ARTERY, THE DOCTOR PUT 3 STENTS IN--2 MEDICATED AND 1 NOT), BOTH OF WHICH HAD DIFFERENT SYMPTOMS. I JUST HAD A SHOOTING PAIN BETWEEN MY BREASTS. I TOOK A TUMS, BUT IT HASN'T HELPED. BOTH OF MY JAWS WERE ACHING, BUT HAVE SINCE STOPPED. THE PAIN IN MY CHEST IS STILL THERE AND MY JAWS STARTED ACHING AGAIN. I HAVE NO FURTHER SYMPTOMS.

Hello,I have gone through your question.Thanks for using HCM.Actually I understand that your case was that of failed angioplasty and redo procedure was done.I need to know what is the status of your main artery called LAD.If you have failed plasty involving LAD you must undergo bypass surgery.But if any of other 2 arteries have blocks then you should try to optimise medication.The symptoms you have narrated are definitely due to angina i.e. heart pain.I need complete details of procedure and your current medications to give your proper guidance.I will be willing to guide you if your furnish full details.
My best wishes
