"Suspected heart attack"

About: Go To Doc Primary Care Limited Leigh Walk in Centre North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust / Emergency ambulance Tameside General Hospital / Cardiology

(as the patient),

Went to a walk-in center at Ashton-under line with shoulder, chest, jaw, pain tight chest and they called the paramedics.

They came quickly did a ecg said it looked liked I could be having a heart attack gave me a bunch of medication it helped got the pain down took me to wythenshawe hospital to the cath lab but was out of danger and they transferred me to tameside hospital and admitted me for further investigation.

I I'm under out patient cardiology department and being looked after it was very nice for the paramedic to come and look in on me meant a lot to me great crew extremely grateful.
