Exactly me!! My new cardiologist totally believes me although my angiogram and other tests looked good. His partner, however, told me I can't have angina with clear vessels. After and ER visit and how I am responding to medications, I probably have coronary angiospasm and/or microvascular disease. It is a very serious situation, so don't let anyone dismiss your symptoms. No wonder heart disease is the largest killer of women! How many doctors have dismissed symptoms.
