Hello! When I was diagnosed with myocardial ischemia before pregnancy, did I have an echocardiogram, an electrocardiogram, and a stress test? Because she is young and female, the assessment for true myocardial ischemia (coronary artery disease) should be conducted comprehensively and in accordance with standard practice guidelines.
With the question "difficulty breathing, chest tightness during pregnancy, what medicine can be used? "The doctor advised me to see a cardiologist for a more comprehensive examination and evaluation, because medications used during pregnancy need to be carefully considered and considered to avoid side effects.
