Yes, I've had some of this... I got in to see a cardiologist and he ordered a CAT scan. One artery, my left circumflex is occluded. Scans show things! Echos and x-rays did not.

Hi,
Is there a plan to do a coronary catherization? To get a more clear and accurate picture of how much narrowing and where along their paths are the points limiting coronary blood flow.
Cardiologist that are 'interventionalist' do catherizations, while they often also see patients in their office. Perhaps your cardiologists would support a second opinion by such a specialist. Good dr's should support patients getting second opinions.
Good luck!
