Just read `isworrieds` message string was very impressed by the standard of advice given - hopefully someone has knowledge of CAA protocols re: Angina?
I'm dependent on a Class 1 medical without any restrictions. I've just undergone a stress ECG (privately) which proved that I suffer with Angina. Resting ECG AOK. I've received medication (low dose aspirin etc.) and advice re: diet/weightloss etc. Obviously health is the primary consideration followed by job. Search of CAA website only throws up a few hits for Angina - all connected to heart attack and protocol for recertification thereafter. Not ready to die yet but can't have 6 months grounded followed by 2 years class 2 either. I'm considering an Angiogram in order to decide next step once extent of problem is known but would really appreciate any input re: CAAs position. Any ideas anyone?
