Thank you Teri for answers to my post. Yes, that is what I have. For yrs they thought I had 55% blockage and didn't want to do anything still it was at least 90%. In 2004 I had another heart cath and the Dr. said I had a very small artery and he is sure it is a birth defect. That is what causes the spasms when it gets overworked. I get so short of breathe with it and in Feb. the pain was so intense and BP was 214/110 that we called 911 and I was sure I was having a MI b/c it didn't feel like other attacks I have had before. But it was after blood test were taken and kept me overnight to make sure. Dr said I was very lucky b/c if I stayed home and didn't get help it would of beeen a MI. He put me on O2 at that time for home and when I get pain I put it on and it does help get the O I need. I have chaged my life style completely and I know I can't do things like I used too so we will be a good girl and do just that. When it gets when nothing helps much then we will do surgery. I will visit this site often b/c I see someone cares about my ? and I enjoy the chats too. Thank you again and anyother info you get about this ,please let me know. E-mail is
