I have angina from back in 1992, does angina ever act up years later? If so what are the symptoms?

I was told by a doctor that angina was caused by having scar tissue around the heart, I told him I was an x drug user. He said it could be caused by several things. Does this ever act up ? If so what are the symptoms? Thank you Dayna.

Does anyone notice a decrease in sex drive after heart procedure?

My doctor says rest until I see cardiologist

I don’t understand what my doctor means when she says rest until I see cardiologist. How much can I do? I am so weak and tired. I was in the hospital but cardiologist was on vacation. Because they think I need a stint and I am allergic to aspirin.
