The pieces of the puzzle slowly come together.
I have had these symptoms; crushing chest pains, day and night, infrequently, for forty years. Blue light journeys to A & E twice in that time, with, 'no problem', ECG results, from doctors who have looked at me as if I was a hysterical time waster.
I was a vegetarian for most of that time, with a high dairy intake. 'Ah', you say, 'so the high calcium was triggering it'. But then three years ago i began to get more and more total body pain, which began in my feet and now exists 24/7, in every bone and muscle in my entire body. From Ibuprofen to Solpadol to Tramadol and Gabapentin and Amitriptylene, to the jackpot, morphine patches.
And along the way, a diagnosis of OsteoMalacia, aka Rickets, because of too little calcium caused by an acute lack of Vitamin D!
I had never heard of Prinzmetal angina before I found it this week on the internet. And I was looking on the internet because last week I had a Coronary Angiogram because finally my GP decided the chest pain required further investigation.
And guess what? The angiogram was, 'normal'. Why for Gods sake, when I was having the angiogram and knowing my symptoms, didn't the cardiologist test for this!!!
I am at my wits end, in constant crippling pain. Would anybody like to have a stab at a whole body diagnosis because having been passed from Rheumatologists to Neurologists to Cardiologists, all of whom deny any responsibility, I am now being, 'parked', in the pain clinic?
Cash prize for best answer! (That's a joke BTW).
